for what seems to be a lifetime it has been in your eyes
that I exist within, the place in which I disguise
my absence of self, my adequate compromise
to embody what I assumed would surely suffice
in satisfying every one of your desires. after a while, I grew to realise
that our case was one of sheer convenience, not at all a prize.
so with these words our journey I canonise
to remind you of your wrongs, but most importantly
of my rights.
Open your eyes.
