Eyes in the dark
Staring and glaring at me
Never looking away
Plastered onto the walls
Even when I close my own eyes, The Eyes surround me
Do they know what I’ve done?
So many acts, no telling which they know
Do they know who I am?
Clearly they do. They stare with purpose
Looking within me
Looking past me
Looking through me
They see it all
They see my successes and see my failures
The Eyes know all
The Eyes see all
They’ve finally come for me
I thought I was just paranoid
But they were just waiting
Waiting until they were ready
And now they are here
Closing in
Cutting off the light
Bringing out the inner darkness
The darkness we all carry
Wearing like a badge
How it’s a weight around my neck
Pulling me down
Down into the darkness
I can’t fight it
I can’t stop it
My resistance is useless
My struggle is pointless
The eyes laugh as I slowly fade away
Becoming one with the abyss
Their laughter growing louder
As my body gets colder, fading, vanishing into the blackness
Soon I will be gone
And The Eyes will move on
And I will be at peace at last
