My eyes

From behind my eyes,
I see this world,
From behind my eyes,
I hide in this world.
I watch the stage,
Direct the cast.
I glimpse the future,
And dream of the past.
From behind my eyes,
I tell my truths,
And conceal my lies.
If only you could see this world,
From behind my eyes.

'I tell my truths,
And conceal my lies.'

Nicely penned, Ron.  Sometimes it is so hard to explain how we see things from 'behind our eyes.'  Great job!

I really like this alot Ron your right so often people don't see what's going on behind those eyes. That sometimes things or circumstances may blur our visions yet we strive so see clearly to see things in a new way. Very nice write
