My Eyes Have Widened

As I open my eyes,
it seems everything I thought,
isn't as it's ought to be.

I notice I am influenced,
I notice my thoughts haven't changed,
I notice that I cannot change what I think.

My eyes have widened,
yet they aren't fully open,
I see my life portrayed before me.

I wish it could be as I see,
I wish it could change,
I wish it was a great story,

The story my eyes see,
though, isn't miraculous,
when it should be!
