ramblings and things
Eyes Of Hope
Dreaming darkest dreams
Of self loathing and despair
A life so ruined so as to be
Beyond any hope of self repair
I was in my own state
Of personal hell,
Like being trapped
In a bottomless well,
Held in a mental
Deep dark place
Until I met the woman
With the old young face.
And that pair of dancin
Sparkling eyes
That held me entraced,
Even hypnotised
Pulling me into
A field of green
The lushest grass
That I’ve ever seen
And we are running
Hand in hand
Just for joy
Across that land.
No need for rush
No place to go
Just happily running
To and fro
Until in time we reached a gate
Where no gate really should be
And she pushed me through
And her eyes set me free
To a different world
A hopeful one
And my deep despair
Was suddenly gone.
And she of the young old face
Was suddenly blind
The price she paid
For cleaning my mind.
A sacrifice
She made for me.
Now I am whole
And I am free.
With my whole being
i had grasped at the chance
While she of the now ruined eyes
Walked on without backward glance.
