Deadeye

"No purpose remains."
The first meaningless words heard
As eyes' aura fades

Doused into darkness
I imagine but don't see
For scenes are not mine

A dream forgotten
Will you wake or fall asleep
After I am gone?

Will you tell the tale
Or listen by the fire
To this ghost story?

"But nobody came."
Terrifyingly simple
Foundation of fear

See, that coin flips here
Love known and the loss of love
Shuddering time's tides

So never believe
That my lot's better or worse
When these eyes go dark

For these eyes stay lit
Spark is just not yours to see
~When our paths diverge~
~When our signals shear~
