In My Eyes, Dethroned (July 29, 2018)

What are you but willful self-deception?
An empty head adorned with silk and jewels.
You need to be among the friends you count as fools,
How I hoped you would make an exception…

Your crown begets a host of stares,
and casts jaws like marbles upon the ground.
Among the mass you seek me out but I’m nowhere to be found…
Dethroned in my eyes; I dissolve my care.
