The eyes cannot lie

The eyes cannot lie.

 

 

Some days it is harder to fake a smile.

Just leave me alone!

I’ll be fine in a little while,

But at this moment in life,

I cannot be ‘Oh you are nice!’

I’ve got to sacrifice this vessel, for time,

Is taken again; the pain is the same,

But the riverbank beauties are still so far away.

 

 

All I want is your empathy;

Please!

But you are not even looking in my direction.

I am a portrait of perfect imperfections

And the untold story of a man on his knees,

Clawing at life; it hits from 360 degrees

And every time, I ask myself why!!?

My subconscious tells me, this is your life.

 

 

I am no taker of another’s property,

But why, oh why, must I be me?

Let me be another broken creation;

One who doesn’t have to suffer this agony!

 

Love is on a permanent vacation.
