Behind These Eyes of Mine #18

What goes on behind these eyes

Of mine

Behind these lies

I keep telling myself it will be fine

When will this come to a stop

Thanks to friction

Stop feeding me this crop

This is why I am writing this fiction

Maybe one day this will come to a halt

But for now it's stable

It's not your fault

That I writing this fable

If you only knew

What goes on behind these eyes

Very few do

But now is the time to rise

So fall back

Show me some trust

What do I lack

Trust me if you must

You left a scar

That will never go away

That will go far

Which path will lead the right way

You will wallow 

In your own self pity

I will not follow

Your deity

The pressure is on

And all the way up as

You are almost gone

What was

The alteration

Changed

This generation

I feel that has been deranged

I have no clue

Why this life

So new

Has so much pain and strife

You can never

Put a label

Or whatever 

On my fable

There is no need to try 

To repair

You wonder why

You can't repair what was never there

I don't know what to do anymore

I am so lost 

I can show you the door

Cause I am your host

Cause you are my pleasure

And my pain

You are my treasure

That was slain
