Mind's Eye
I saw into your mind
The other day
Wrenching tearing blackness
Dripping into burning acid
Like mutant, writhing worms
Decaying with age
Devouring the blank sheet
That was your mind
I saw into your mind
The other day
Soft, hollow sadness
Dizzy and blue
Soft fingers of orange
And shudders of yellow
Seeping through the blank canvas
That was your mind
I saw into your mind
The other day
Silent begging and shredded skin
Like the dirt on the bottom
Of a lost soul's feet
I saw into your mind
The chaos that was purely you
I wish I could have done more
I wish I could have saved you
But the twining lines
Of fate and breath
Only reaches so far
Before coming to rest
At the last child's feet
I saw into your mind
The other day
The window to the soul
The eyes I coursed through
To find this pathetic lost cause
Were my own.
