He does not need to close his eyes
To black out the world and the skies
His thoughts and fears reach out
Into a void and a dark sea of ebony
And silence reigns
Though anger may flood his veins
His thoughts and fears reach out
To the unseeing world, but
they remain in darkness
And so the colours
fade
Mutate from black to grey with
the noises he hears,
Such bitter music to his ears,
So he reaches out in thought
and fear
He reaches out to me, I feel
his eyes,
To touch the face I hide
And by his hand pray I
understand
What he thinks, and what he
fears
When he speaks I close my eyes
To black out the world and the
skies
To feel his fear, and sink
into his thoughts
Into a void, and a dark sea of
ebony
