When I closed my eyes I saw the pupils of another Staring deeply back within the darkness So deep they penetrated my own as if I were gazing upon a mirror My vision slowly pulled out in fear Yet it did not try to pull focus once more So unlike the usual eyes that haunt my every slumber With a face full in colour and strangely familiar And a breath that I could hear and feel As if a tide caressing a wave back to the embrace of the open sea His breath captured me as it touched my skin Into his waters was I carried Yet kept there I was not For when I pulled out there was no ransom I was freed upon my surrender
