He is beside himself – clasping at rather weakened straws
These crying eyes portray his absolute agony, only a little further on out of reach
Seem utterly insistent upon remaining anything but happy
They just will not settle and see the way they were meant to see – and for that alone he is quite understandably inconsolable
And then, the manic mind cannot control itself through this living, breathing anger alone
