Eyes

In the Dark,

I'm All Alone.

All I can see,

Two eyes staring at me.

They looked as if they were staring into my soul,
Picking it apart, reading my life like an open book.
They kept staring, not looking away...

Their eyes look familiar...
Who's eyes are they?

All I see is those eyes, staring at my soul.
Never to look away, never to blink.

It's torture. Why can't I blink? Why don't I move? Talk? Run? Look Away? Anything?
I stood still, I couldn't move. All I could do was stare at the eyes that stared back,
Waiting helplessly for something, anything, to happen.

But something did happen.
The Darkness turned to light,
And what I realised as I saw.

I was staring in the mirror at myself.
I didn't move as I stared at the eyes in front of me.
Trying to find a good story.

But nothing good was there.

And nothing ever will be.....
