Eyes of Chittim

Lovely eyes of Chittim in the Vale of Shiddim
Within each a need to reveal and a need to conceal
Because of the vulnerability we feel. As the wilderness, the desert, from the depths of the 
earth so is the heart in desolation, the
	Vile poured forth but never in isolation.	
From the cleft of the rock, from the secret places
Of the earth, the aura is shadowed from coming forth.
Troubled waters beneath your gaze images to unfold and
What mysteries to behold, where stones have rippled the haze.
The dews drop upon the heart graced with jewels And chains of gold, was never made for 
any dart for the love that you gave,
Lovely eyes of Chittim in the Vale of Shiddim.
