My Eyes

She blinks up at me

From down by my feet.

She changed me.

 

Take a big breath in every time I speak

So I don’t hate me.

 

Well the secrets out,

I let nothing in

So she gets low.

 

She reminds me how

I have been

Cuz I don’t know.

 

My eyes stay the same

While the rest of me changes,

 

But you can see the strain

By the way my face is.

 

I’ve kicked her out 

Time and time again,

She has no master.

 

I run and run as fast as I can,

But she runs faster.

 

She’s every second of everyday 

Until I run out.

 

There’s just too many numbers I have to say

For me to count.

 

I swear I’d let her hurt me,

I swear upon my life,

I swear I’d let her kill me

Or at least I’d let her try.

 

I swear her claws are in deep,

Down to the bone.

I swear if you go near her

Your life won’t be your own.

 

Your life won’t be your own,

And neither will your body,

And neither will your soul.
