we can misunderstand
]we can
inside the best
we can
see it through
smacked in the face
where are the real poets
taken for what could be
enlightened within the speak
tell us, once again
tell us, about death in your eyes
we were here
we handed the times
**** you and your chimes
why do we write
why dom we deal
why do we even come close
we will, and we know
we will taste, we will smell, we have already eaten the lies, but we will never misplace the eyes
I don't know you, but you could swear upon me
within the last distance I have learned not to be

Wonderfully colorful language...very engaging, and intrigueing.  I like how you assume your reader is intelligent...otherwise they would miss the whole point.
Keep writing.
Take care.
