Eyes In The Darkness Poem by Gerry Legister

Eyes In The Darkness



A looked from within my ebony eyes,
seeing afar the things we often despise,
Becoming one with darkness in crises,
fleeing light flares when agony subsides.

And hope delve into truth within the lies
I looked again with eyes in the darkness.
Discovered answers that were left unsaid
and turn the pages that others had read.

Then I weep deep within that bitter black
where I found the words that I often lack.
I looked again from within my ebony eyes,
and watch the blanket of darkness pass.

I died slowly while I was found hypnotize,
and lost myself within that uncertain gaze.
Sought light when life began new phase,
while losing my loathsome inner disguise.
