Paranoia and Reality...

All eyes on you,

though none are at all.

If this continues to be true,

I will let my focus fall.

I've the capacity for madness,

it's chattering my teeth.

My mind's receding,

to the noise underneath.

Does it not feel bleak?

Under destiny's ambiguous cheek. 

Denying anything complete.

The treacherous little sneak.

If only I could take a peak,

at a world less meek. 

Something to strive for, 

A goal that I may seek.

Amazing. Kirk, the more I read of you the deeper you get. The second verse especially cuts really close home. Fear and desperation eat away at our minds but don't give up - Even Chopin had good days. :) Keep smiling.
