The eyes of one see darkness in the sky, Within the cosmos a fruitless revelry; They witness hell unchecked and miles high, Deceit as common as droplets in the sea; Their tears poured hot in vain find no reply, For all the empty pain and iniquity. Another's see the coming death of night, Inside our world an ebullient panoply; Their paths laid bare from flames that give them sight, Truth their only root that nourishes the tree; The tears that fall give passion to their fight For all that fills man's hearts with nobility.

The Eyes of a Man
The eyes of one see darkness in the sky, Within the cosmos a fruitless revelry; They witness hell unchecked and miles high, Deceit as common as droplets in the sea; Their tears poured hot in vain find no reply, For all the empty pain and iniquity. Another's see the coming death of night, Inside our world an ebullient panoply; Their paths laid bare from flames that give them sight, Truth their only root that nourishes the tree; The tears that fall give passion to their fight For all that fills man's hearts with nobility.
