Truth
I say Truth with a capital t
But I mean You with a lowercase me
I mean the eyes under your face
I sold my own to comfort
In exchange for eternal slumber
But I was tricked, you see
For comfort was to claim to be
So i went into the black market to purchase back my eyes
Socks off, belly full--i got prepped for new vision
Tore open my eye-wrapper, but don't you see?
I had sold them my sockets to trade for eyes
And so I got angry, squished the newly brought balls, squished them into nothing
Yes, i put them into the fruit blender, mixed in peanut butter and sugar
And drank them away
Belly full, i could never see
Half starving, I could've still seen
You
