Close Your Eyes
I close my eyes and yet I still see
all of the horror as it fills in around me
The yelling and the screaming encompasses my mind
and I know soon I will be out of time.
The world is crashing but I don't know why
or possibly I know and I am to scared to reply.
I feel trapped by all of the anger, with no way out.
I hope I can find the will not to shout.
For when I close my eyes, I can see.
I can see the world making its' plea.
Be kind and do not be deceived,
Because when you open your eyes they will make you believe.
So shut your eyelids and ignore the lies,
You will see better if you close your eyes.
