Overblinking

My eyes,

They always betray me

When I run down the

Uncanny valley

 

Your smiles,

They mean nothing to me

While I'm going through

What is left to see

 

Your thoughts,

Are walls that I can't touch

A prison for my words

Where I don't know much

 

Your names,

They never stay around

Loud ideas of noise

You shared and then drowned

 

Your eyes,

They always betray me

I confuse your dreams

With what I should see
