Through my eyes

Through my eyes
Posted By: Felicia Debro on January 26, 2006


I wonder what the rest of the world sees,
because through my eys i see misery.
To others joy and happieness it what it may seem,
but for me to see that is only im my dreams.
When I lay at night to go to sleep,
I close my eyes and pretend to count sheep.
They take me to a different place,
where there is always a smile on my face.
Where I can sit back and chill and not worry about nothing,
there is no struggles, no pain , no darkness, no rain.


Just a clear blue sky with the sun beaming down,
and on no ones face will be a frown.
Just a smile as I pass you by,
and no tears in my eyes because in here I have no need to cry.
The Lord says Joy Commath in the Moring,
so there is no fear of the night,
because in here it is alway bright.
Then I am waken by the light from the break of dawn,
and just like that my dream is gone.
I start to cry as I look up and see,
a world fulled with pain and misery.
I wonder does anyone else see what I see through my eyes.
