Frozen Tears

A world viewed through cold eyes creates frozen tears & hardened emotions Going through the motions only solidifies the pain as salty feelings cut like ice sickles impaling warm veins These feelings bleed out into the streets of our minds that were constructed upon old structures & paradigms in vain At times I feign ignorance of these false foundations because ignorance is bliss knowing burying my head in the sand could be hit or miss No one is at home in this batters box & it would be remiss of me to not mention this paradox The glass half empty view if full of contradictions no one wants to see through & in a world viewed through cold eyes tears are frozen before they've had a chance to cry Dry ice falls & shatters leaving you to pick up the pieces as if gathering your emotions isn't hard enough in this season
