stood before my misty
bedroom window pane
I saw hazy scenes of future
and my gray reflected face
blotches, smudges, patches
feelings, emotions, thoughts
on that bedewed window
of a million human hearts
my bare palm feels the glass
cold indelible marks.
forms a million faces
in that frosty glass
Gazing deeply at me
from beyond the glass
the hungry and the bleeding
from a thousand miles.
My heart begins to wonder
what scenes are yet to come
beyond that misty window
as the days come and go by
Will warm rays of sunshine
ensure the mist goes dry,
or raindrops bathe the pane
and wash away it stain.
but those searching gazes,
of a million stained faces,
of bleeding feet and wishes
forever is etched in that pane
