Bright Eyes

Bright Future

I’m so sick of this feeling,

It’s burning me up, like a virus.

Don’t know how much I can stand - before, I fall.

When I go to speak tears are just - brimming my world.

How come? I used to smile with you, that now, everything floods.

Really I wanted to make you happy, even though you made me cry.

The things I thought about was those - bright eyes.

But I guess this was nothing but a ruse,

nothing but a lie.

If I recalled everything,

then I hear your whispers

‘Pathetic…. Annoying…. Unwanted’.

If I stay in the darkness I can’t see you, but I have to face your light again, but as I feel the pain through me.

I cover my eyes to shield from it. Because you, are me.
