Hungry Eyes
the point is followed feeling hollow
heavy and leaden
my case has yet to crack
the potential there
none the less
sweets and whims
keep my mouth a river
while I split hairs
frozen and thirsty
playing with my eyes
if only I could watch you fall
through the dark circles
iris a portal to the cage
where you are trapped
the only company my heart
eager for these thoughts to feed
i build my own fire
and it rages on
the smoke, the only witness
animals in the distance
shadows can only listen
Id rather forget youre there
