Dead Eyes of the Night

Dead eyes of the night, stare not at me now For I am not ready for the journey, the endless journey To a land without people, a dead place, the place of bones The place of our noble ancestors Staring at us in silence, from the deadland The place of never return, the great beyond They remain there undoing, unmoving and uncaring Please dead eyes of the night stare not at me yet.

Your words are compelling, intriguing, and sound, expressing a feeling we sometimes have, but may not have a word for yet.
