&quot;As I hide behind these books I read, while scribbling my poetry,<br /> like art could save a wretch like me, with some ideal ideology that no one can hope to achieve.<br /> And I am never real; it is just a sketch of me.<br /> And everything I made is trite and cheap and a waste of paint, of tape, of time.&quot; - Bright Eyes

Open eyes yet closed heart.
Clutch my hand with faulty start.
Creeping mind, shifting thoughts.
Emotions swing, feelings caught.
Seemed so bright yet sight was dark.
Open eyes yet closed heart.
