Never To Long
By mlamont
Beneath this open wound, a beating heart lies. And beneath this full grown man, a dying child cries. Beneath these wary eyes, is a place where I can hide. And beneath all the laughs and smiles, Apart of me has died. Never to long, to long to see All that you have thrown, you've thrown to me. Just turn your back, your back to me, Off all of my pain, which you will feed. Between the things that matter, And between the things that don't. Between whats right and wrong, And for all that you have longed. Just open your eyes and realize, What you've done and what you owe. Between what you've taken, And between what you've gave. I could never see, what you could mean, and how am I your slave? Above this fuzzy ground, All the shit that you have found, And above my angry words, Everything that you have heard. Just open your eyes and realize What you reap is what you sow. Just open your eyes. Written January 27th, 2002 © on Jan 27 2002 01:30 PM PST 20 • 0 • 1
