Senpaku eyes, the pallor grows, More white than soul begins to show, As if the tide within retreats— And leaves me hollow, incomplete. The mirrors catch what I evade, A drifting gaze that will not stay, It lingers long where light once lived— Then flickers faint… as though it gives. No cry, no gasp—just quiet thin, A loosening thread beneath the skin, The world recedes in ashen sighs— And widens still… these senpaku eyes.

Senpaku Eyes
Senpaku eyes, the pallor grows, More white than soul begins to show, As if the tide within retreats— And leaves me hollow, incomplete. The mirrors catch what I evade, A drifting gaze that will not stay, It lingers long where light once lived— Then flickers faint… as though it gives. No cry, no gasp—just quiet thin, A loosening thread beneath the skin, The world recedes in ashen sighs— And widens still… these senpaku eyes.
