Tears

Tears fill my eyes
clouding the perfect vision of myself
showing me scenes of my life
that I remembered a different way

Tears roll down my cheeks
slowly taking away my misconception
leaving only the salty trail
of the life I thought I had lived

Tears now dry
my old life now evaporated
the reality thats left
terrifies my soul.

The things I have done
I can never forgive
The pain I caused
but never felt

My life has changed
since I learned to cry
No longer do I live in my own little nirvana
Reality called to me the day I learned to cry.

Life Unseen

The life you see
I let you see
My life is shrouded in mist
Even to me

My life unseen
Dances wildly
Unchecked
Untended
Unnoticed
Influencing the life you see

My life unseen
Cries for attention
Prays
Begs
Pleads
Influencing the life you see

Time immortal
Swings the life unseen
Crying out
Herald; This is the life you have lived
The life unseen
