My eyes bleed

I wanted something I couldn't have

I wanted to try something new

Now my eyes are bleeding

And I feel stupid

I don't have artistic talent

I shouldn't have tried

It was just another fluke of mine

And now my eyes are bleeding

Now I have to face my shame

Everyone will look upon my swollen eyes

And know I tried

Tried to not be me
