The mind in light



The eye is cast
And the mind in light
Follows the eye
As the sky azure
Spreads clear as the sun
As the moon looms
Over us in the night
As the eye follows
The mind in light
As we pass by
And enter the night
As the stars are spread
Over us in the red
And we awake
To a day in a haze
And remember the day before
But return a gaze
As the mind in light
Follows the eye
And we go down
Never to be found
And return a look
In the night
