Fallen Too Far

When We Know Is How We Forget

the man trapped within a boy's eyes
a prison with a view

the last time i saw was the first time you looked into
my eyes and noticed something more

i scream, quick! let go of the memories, float away
on a debris of sirens to the tune
of your wordless eyes

so real, and masked unseen behind a veil of virgin
pain and singular isolation

Like rats how absurd
Children growing older
Every minute
Every lie

So he slowly stepped off of the rug, and watched the patterns of his feet
Disappear into the silver carpet.

The king walked over to his window and looked over his kingdom.
It lay below him, sparkling in all it's silver beauty
And as he watched, it seemed to come alive with people
Shining like silver in the warm sun

A tear rolled down his quietly down his cheek
