Behind These Eyes

A Poem by The Tabby Kitteh

You don't know the truth that lies behind these eyes.

Behind These Eyes

Behind these eyes

I am trapped

Waiting to be free

Trapped within humanity.

Never to escape

I cannot help myself

I hiss when I am freighted

I growl when I am annoyed.

I snarl when I am angry

I meow when I am alone

A prowling feline in disguise

My true self remains hidden

Hidden behind my deep eyes

Waiting to pounce on

My unsuspecting prey

I am caged inside this body.

I long to be free

To escape and be myself

But alas I cannot

I am stuck behind these eyes.
