Lids fall and close gently over light eyes
As bright as the sun, as dark as the night.
Eyes that know all, hold knowledge that dies
They shrivel and blacken, suffering blight.

For they realized not how I satiated
Upon their master’s heartless, cruel gaze
Blind and opaque, heart emaciated
The root of love pulls my lungs with malaise

Sadness like pressure rises in me now
Hands grab for innards, silent and gaudy
How much more pain on me will you endow?
Fingers like knives haunt my aggrieved body.

Knowledgeable you are, well known you trance,
Know you not all; see never my still glance.
