Eyes in the Mist

Eyes in the mist Nothing less, nothing more Eyes of every possible color known to man and more Shades of blue, shades of brown, shades of every color known then and now Some are human, some are beast Soulless blank stares is mostly what you see Worse are the ones that have a spark of hope Hoping for something else, something more The eyes hide in the mist beyond time If you have the misfortune venturing here be prepared to walk for eternity Across deserts, across mountains, across lakes, across oceans The whole universe you will travel Though you can't see much but the ground beneath your feet And the mist And the eyes If you shall give up, lay down, and perish The only thing that will remain will be your eyes Untouched by the passage of time To watch the other unlucky souls that have ventured here You'll watch them forever more How do I know you ask me? I have walk the land and sea in the mist I have watched creatures of all types cease to be I have gazed unblinkingly back into the eyes that follow Now I am telling you this because You have been unlucky enough to have wandered out of time To walk for eternity And be forever trapped Watched by the eyes in the mist
