Peek a Boo

circa 03

Peek a Boo
Can you see me?
I am here in front of you.
Look if you dare.

I bite my tongue
I see that it is rusted
From holding back the salt of
Apathy and Sarcasm.

Depressed as hell
I’m not sleeping well
I’m hiding from societal Hitler’s that tell me
If you’re not me your wrong

I dare you to see me
But you can’t
Ignorance is blissful when you
Can’t fathom an meaningful
Existence besides your own.

Where can I go from here?
If my only escape is
Downward in spirals of feelings that
Are lacking Human compassion.

Where can I hide?
When the only safe place is my head
In my arms and the only shield I can
Find is my tears.

Who can I trust?
When the world goes crazy
And leaves me here to die
To fend for myself and live the
Lie they have created.

In my prison I can hide
Away from you.
Can you see me?
I look out at you
I see what you do.
