In My Eyes

I’m the one who’s always lost but then the one who’s always found.
I’m the one who’s always there and yet the one who’s not around.

I’m the one who wants to hold it all, but never wants to touch.
I’m the one who doesn’t give a damn because I care to much.

I’m the one who feels I can’t go on, but everyday I go.
I’m the one who tends to row upstream, but everyday I row.

I’m the one who all look up to, but the one they never see.
I’m the one who locked myself inside to set the others free.

I’m the one who if by chance you pause to look into my eyes…
You’ll see that I’m the one you’ve always looked for in disguise.

…Jeff Bresee
