What I See... Poem by Raphael Amorous Cead

I looked at my life through the eyes of a stranger,
saw a pitiful child who lost his way long ago.
So sad and annoying to keep the people away from the problem,
Sobbing in the corner of the crowded room full of scoffers.
only to put on a show for them right after.
I saw a man who I'd never be;
saw him in the mirror looking right back at me.
I saw cold eyes of green in the morning blood-shot and stained with guilt,
I saw blue and green eyes trying to fool all the people,
and I see the gray eyes all teary at night.
I am the moon up alone in the sky and I am the man that was meant to die.
The one that nobody wants to be sad, yet the one that is rightfully clad,
with these feeling that haunt me, and all the while destroy me.
Now I see a story unfolding before me with a somewhat tragic end.
I looked at my life through the eyes of a stranger,
saw a pitiful child who lost his way long ago.
