Open Your Eyes

Why that I turn you murmur
Why plot against the innocent
Truly, the one you love
Is the one to destroy you
Coz death always smile at you

They're dear to your heart
They look feint and smile with you
Showing snowy, cruel kindness teeth
When you cry
They shed crocodile tears with you
But in heart rejoicing in your misery

Still asleep, open your eyes
Coz you're better off
Such two timing perfidious hypocrites 
Who defames you
Not all around you are on your side
Remember, you're on your own

Yes, that sadly happens my dear friend. Many rejoice in the misery of others and hold no honesty and kindness for their fellow man in their cold hearts. That's the world and many dishonest people for you. Well stated! Enjoyed the read.;) Hugs! Love and light! Take good care now. xxxx D.

Yes we are on our own. It is a sad existence. Words we truly understand when we are grown. When our life can fade in an instance. Good work
