I Dare You (Poem)

So just look in my eyes
Let me tell you my tale
And unfold my horrors
With all the sorrows that
combined this dull life
Feels like a world is
filled with only pain


So just look in to my eyes
They tell my tale
The colors of the world
You'll find them there
Everything I know
Everything I've been through


I've had enough of all these lies
These ties that hold me here
Now please pull the trigger
and die
and leave me here


So just look in my eyes
and find my tale
And for once maybe someone
Will see my hell
The colors of the world
You'll find them there
Everything I know
Everything I've been through lie there


I will only say how I am
When I feel the need to say
Till then I will wear my mask
So you won't hear my plea
But secretly I want you to
hear my song
And maybe this time
the pain won't last so long


So just look in my eyes
And find my tale
And for once maybe someone
Will see the real me
the colors of the world
You'll find them there
Everything I know
Everything I've been through


For now I hold my head up high
And just be strong
So not to let my mask fall and
shatter on the ground
The clash, the shatter
And the sounds
Breaking this illusion
Breaking me for the world to see
All at once everything at once unfolds


So I dare you to look me in the eyes
And see my tale
The eyes hold the key just wait and see
Try for once to see the real me
Live within me
Feel my pain
Look me in the eyes
Let me know what you see
Can you see the real me?
