“It is better to be beautiful than to be good, but it is better to be good than to be ugly.”
-Oscar Wilde


Every night someone watches me
Two eyes staring straight into my mind
I let out a simple fearful plea
Help me to leave my thoughts behind

Two eyes staring straight into my mind
I’m too delirious to know if this is real life
I search and spy but no one is there to find
I sit in silence and there’s nothing left to write

I’m too delirious to know if this is real life
A blurred haze is all that’s left of my memory
I feel someone has slashed my dreams with a knife
Every night someone watches me.


The author's comments:
Paranoia is influenced by fear. Two Eyes brings paranoia to a whole different level. This Pantoum is packed with heavy emotion. Many people can easily relate to this feeling described in the poem. Enjoy.
