What I See

I see you 
don’t like what I see
Dark walls painted red 
Loud bumming sounds 
Stumping on the ground 
Hand waving back and forth 
Speech stutter eating of the flesh 
No sleep wont eat 
Steeling what is at close reach 
Pushing away from close hands 
No light in close sight 
I see you 
Drifting away
But not alone taking 
Those close to you with you 
I see you 
Lost in excuses 
To be in the state your in 
Blame is just a darn shame 
With nothing to gain 
The  crakes are writhing on your face 
I see you 
Not trying 
Not fighting
Not caring
I see you I also see those 
Who care cry out in despair 
Going down the same path 
I see you 
Not reaching 
To those that are willing to pull the rope
Tired of living having to see 
What we all see 
I see you
