I Slept On My Eyes
I slept on my eyes and my eyes are very red
And when I look up I see blue instead
The blue sky falling on the wing of a bird. This sky falling on the wing of a dove.
This blue sky on the wing of an eagle.
I slept on my eyes and my eyes are very red
And I look around the earth trembled with dread.
The Master is watching as the thread weakened.
Leaving the earth to stumble and mankind fallen.
I slept on my eyes and my eyes are very red.
And I look and saw them fill with youth and vigor.
Watching me, watching them. Care not for the world they live in.
Love, they claimed as I see their thoughts even though
I am having problem
How often does that happened?
I slept on my eyes and my eyes are very red.
And I look down on the earth on which I tread. One black foot going ahead of the other, walking in circles, going after nothing.
As man runs and the earth shakes, mankind falls.
I walked in circles.
Asking.
Where am I going? Why can’t I reach there? And how much longer will I feel this pain in my eyes?
