Opened EyesA Poem by Donald FoggittSometimes it feels as though
That nobody else is there
That life sometimes just feels
That nothing is really fair
Those things we really need
And without we cannot live
Are the things the others have
And are not willing to give
In silence we go on
Just as though we do not care
But inside we're slowly dying
Drowning in despair
We wear our masks and carry on
Until that promised day
That we will get just what we want
That things will go our way
All of a sudden we open our eyes
And see whats actually there
That there are many people
Who really actually care
Our hate subsides and disappears
The longer that we feel
The things other people do
That what they feel is real
In life we cannot just assume
To know just what will be
Its not our job to drown ourselves
But to rather set us free
