Our eyes may be the windows of the soul, through my windows I see all the sorrows. Where sorrow's tears always do take a toll; hoping to improve everyone's tomorrows. My fortress, built as a face to the world; reveals that "fair is foul and foul is fair". Discerning what is just and unfurled - then can we ever see the real truth out there? Bound by my fears and tears I sadly weep. Is something within sullenly seething? In my soulful refuge I "murder sleep" - like widows in back of a church fretting. From my perch my judgments are on the brink. Now I see the slanted ways people think.
