I gaze into the eternity beyond pupils dilation Where soul has lost sole control of the spirit And the darkness that grips twists the mind Warping memories into incoherent phantoms Wailing in anguish as I brush them aside Gazing deeper, Beyond the pale of of my mortal coil Searching for an answer that nature neglects Written not in emerald green starbursts, Shrouded by grey washed blue skys, But further, beyond the heavens Where night stretches beyond Terra Firma And empty space reigns in perpetual waltz Aging as my eye progresses towards the birth When light was given life and purity was pure Before the infection of the question That has no answer or cure Nor did it need, For there I found looking back as if a mirror My reflection staring at itself in amazement For I had solved the theory of everything By knowing thyself… beyond myself

The Gaze
I gaze into the eternity beyond pupils dilation Where soul has lost sole control of the spirit And the darkness that grips twists the mind Warping memories into incoherent phantoms Wailing in anguish as I brush them aside Gazing deeper, Beyond the pale of of my mortal coil Searching for an answer that nature neglects Written not in emerald green starbursts, Shrouded by grey washed blue skys, But further, beyond the heavens Where night stretches beyond Terra Firma And empty space reigns in perpetual waltz Aging as my eye progresses towards the birth When light was given life and purity was pure Before the infection of the question That has no answer or cure Nor did it need, For there I found looking back as if a mirror My reflection staring at itself in amazement For I had solved the theory of everything By knowing thyself… beyond myself
