Tired Eyes

Just something i wrote a long time ago.


The Sun breaks upon a pale face

With long and tired eyes.

Light but dark, much like a marsh

It is often wet, seldom dry

A husk foes rise from its guard

In darkened cloth it is garbed

With a forward lurch, it starts it's search.

To try and dry its tired eyes

As Sun sets, and shadows rise

Hands on chest it shall pry

Remembering now, something lost

To renew again would have its cost

A loving face greets the sky

And it does kiss so tired eyes

Now stiff from head to feet

Nightmarish dreams come with sleep

Until again the sun will rise

And open once more, so tired eyes
