A glance on the street where
A stranger’s eyes you meet
Eyes with the depth
Of a gypsy Soul
They beckon...probe...know...
You tumble...falling...
Surrendering…alone
Into the depths
Of a lake
Of a thousand stars
Of complete blackness
Of pinpoints of light
These eyes caress you
They make you feel complete
Wrap you in softness
Until you are replete
Then they strip you
Of all comfort and gain
Filling you with turmoil
Drowning with pain
You lose your soul
No struggle to be had
As you leave your will behind
Your soul…it grows still
Defense? You have naught
Why, oh why, could you not have fought?
Clawing, screaming to struggle out
Throwing off bondage, throwing off hell
Fighting to quell
The anguish inside
Burning like flames
You are eaten alive
Never to surface
Never to see
A stray glance
As you walk the street
