Sentimental Eyes

Time does not want to talk now
Do you know the reason why?
Sentimentality is like acid 
Burning through your soul!
Your heart is under siege
The seething disturbance
Moving through your veins
Till it reaches your plague inflicted mind!
How long can those walls hold?
All those who approach you
Could never realise 
What this stupid mind thinks
Behind those beautiful sentimental eyes!
It is not your fault, as it grips your very soul
Because it’s something we feel and cannot control
Sending you down a spiral you never thought
Would go beyond the deepest hole!
