It hid behind my eyes

for quite some time

Dark behind the shadows

Deep beneath the wine

I couldn't wake

because I stopped to breathe

I couldn't dream

because the thought was sheathed

I just laid there

soft in the grass

waiting for that moment

One that could last

but the world kept moving

and my eyes churned still

In that sea of blades

In all my will

And I still couldn't find it
