Beyound what you can see

It's only when your eyes are shut,
They dance around and around.
Only natural to want more,
But the more you watch the more you drown.

You see the future and you see that past,
You stare into the mystery.
Appearing only where you want to,
And disappearing where the pain might be.

But soon your eyes must open,
And your visions disappear.
You can no longer control what you see,
And soon it takes over, the reality of fear!
