Hold My Eyes

-Hold My Eyes-
by
Keaton Foster



Hold my eyes
Tell no lies
See what I see
Know what I know
Be quite certain
Judge me not
Never again
Set me free
From the weight
Of your schemes
Punish me no more
Never again make me
Your unwilling whore
I did what I did
Only because I had to
You have done
All that you have done
Because you wanted to
You said my sin was birth
You told me
That I was a mistake
Not meant to be
Simutainiousely
You created a need
A sickening desire
That could only be met
By me and my youth
Hold my eyes
See the world as I have
As you have shown it to me
Punish yourself
Through me and my ability
To see with great clarity
I know what you
Like many human beings
Are truly capable of
I have seen the horrors
And I don’t need eyes
To have a clear view
Perception appears as God
Is such a Godless universe
Hold my eyes
Give them back
Only when you have seen
All that you need to see
In order for you to know
For you to understand
And then set me free
From my prison of perception
And the reality of such contradiction
Perpetrated by you and your kind…
