A Child Within
A CHILD WITHIN
What you see in me
Is absolutely what I am.
In me; there's a man yet a child
An outer-man; I am, but
a child within.
Seeing a little demon
Yeah, I'm full of images
Somewhat blury- and
A bigger jack you might think of me
Both are adjectives yet nouns
you've got a perfect illusions so.
In me; there are voices
Cruel and balmy
They sometimes don't
portray me but
They are me and
I'm them.
