MY EYES
Through my eyes you will find death
The only real truth that we have left
All else is gone a result of our father's theft
So much has been destroyed that we should have kept
Through my eyes you'll see into the real world
Not into the illusions that from birth you've been hurled
Rules made to control to twist and to twirl
Distortions of the truth that make your hair curl
They use this fear so we will fallow their rules
They strip you of yourself with their corrupting tools
Through my eyes you can travel deep into your soul
Realize you are full of love and that there is no hole
Through my eyes beauty is all that is seen
I remember the wonder that we had once been
Through my eyes one is all and all are one
Have love and joy and most of all have fun

With family and friends,
having a young life of thrills,
Living life without a care.
Till one day I grew up,
Realizing I had
