what do you see
looking into eyes
rationalize
glamorize
maybe even fantasize
but eyes are quick to memorize
jeopardize and compromise
the soul, the beat
inner workings deep entwined
try for once to realize
what goes on behind eyes
the hidden fate, the deep despise
the sad attempt to plagiarize
long I wait in callous sighs
to chase the truth and fight the lies
who we are, what  and why
all stricken with our own disguise
waiting for a passerby
to not look
but see
