Through eyelids

When I close my eyes

I see blood-filtered light,

and feel slight-pulsing life

wash over my mind.

When I close my eyes

I see edge-dazzled images,

and feel almost-present thoughts

as they flit across my mind.

When I close my eyes

I dream not-said visions,

and feel heart-wrenching wishes

flutter from my soul.
