Big Eyes

Sunken eyes behind deep illuminated presence 
Behind many Queen's fable mirrors distort her betray
Metal heart maiden's rust rainbows graphite tint decay 
Becoming who we knew inside sunsets left countenance 
Like burnish gold forgotten beyond sense day drifts 
Of cold courage refusal stamps our candle rapture glow 
Signal fail pretense captures past caption ruse 
Window's crash open allowing reaper's flyer fare through;
Live's embody pain of thorns eternal discourse
Storms light the fracture empty finger toss bone white 
Past movie star caskets parade pull of fashion flush 
Leaving scatter existent hue under shades winter blue
