I open my eyes...

by Jae   Feb 17, 2007


I open my eyes,
and what do i see,
but a great big world,
smiling back at me....

My hands are tiny,
My body is light,
I cry a lot,
And can barely sleep through the night...

I open my eyes,
and what do i see,
but a gun barrel,
staring back at me...

My legs start to quiver,
My heart starts to speed,
My mind goes blank,
My heart starts to bleed...

I open my eyes,
and what do i see,
but a tiny pair of eyes,
smiling back at me...

My time wasnt over,
it had barely began,
and now i look down,
at a new life again...

I open my eyes now,
and what do i see,
but a bright white light,
shining back at me....

I have been through the best,
and definitely the worst,
but now i am home,
and i no longer hurt....

To all of the people in this world who are lost or alone.... there is more in this life than just pain, money, suffering, or status.... take advantage of life, while you still have it, because like these four souls, we all have a chance to BE........ think about it...... it might just be what u need.....
