Behind Closed Eyes

Folder: 
Soul Poetry

In views,

hindered,

things are seen

more in focus

than reality's mere glancing.



Behind closed eyes,

I look upon memories,

untainted

by harsh glares

of dawning daze.



Unobscured,

I watch these things,

offered before me,

in stark contrast

to naked visions.



Unfettered pictures

bounce off static scenes,

where movement becomes

fluid

and freely flowing.



Unobstructed perception,

demands my attentions

and captures

tiny nuances

otherwise, missed.



Unhampered sightings

show me multitudes more-

in technicolor meloncholy,

than eyes stretched,

wide-open.



Yet, even clearer views

to innermost portraits,

offer only

black and white impressions

of a blinded optical illusion.
