"THROUGH MY EYES" in "RESTLESS: POETICALLY-SPEAKING"

Through my eyes I can see
you, overcome by agony
There’s your wall of misery
such a painful sight as can be

but the other side of you
has given me that smile, so serene
I wonder where you have been
and why that smile always kills my rage within

Still, you’re overwhelmed by agony
and I find myself standing outside your door
too afraid of moving forward
because I haven’t got the cure

Will you still let me in,
even if I show up
completely empty-handed?
