Eyes That Close
Laid wide open
Naked.
Bare.
Everything I have,
Want,
Need.
There.
Here.
Now.
In front of you.
But eyes that close,
Cannot see,
The pain that lives
Inside of me.
The soul I show,
My troubled sleep,
The scars I store,
Buried deep.
The love I hid,
Lost.
And lied.
Even though,
I thought I tried.
But open now
Is far too late
For you are gone,
No more to wait.
Laid wide open,
Naked.
Bare.
But eyes that close,
Cannot see
There’s nothing left
Inside of me.
