Seen

It was a sign,

But I was blind,

I felt it take over,

I’m suddenly sober.

It was like mist,

That I was a drift,

Soaking in thickness,

Lost in the thickness of the fog.

Each hair stood up

Like a soldier in command,

He read my eyes like a psychic reads my hand

Every expression meant something to you

If you could see it,

I had a moment

And it was like taking off my glasses

And seeing it all through a blur

And if I could feel it,

I would’ve felt it,

And the confusion would be over

It’s like decoding a drunken slur

Caught in the act,

How should I react?

I feel like I’m drowning,

My heart is now pounding,

It’s like an ache,

Causing you to break,

Succumb to the feeling,

Get lost in the feeling of it all

My tongue had stopped,

like a mouse stuck in a trap,

he spoke my thoughts like

my face had been a map,

every expression meant something to you
