Sad Eye Doll

Little steps
through the hall
ever find
ever fall

sleeping pill
whisper tall
weeping words
on the wall

Echo the endless, echo the essence
ever eternal, the sleep of a sad eye doll

Quiet dead
breath of night
hallowed
hollow sight

wretched need
in the light
paler shade
pallor white

broken teeth
heart alone
sleeping child
still unknown

fingers crossed
cold as stone
tiny dreams
ever sewn

Echo the endless, echo the essence
ever eternal, the sleep of a sad eye doll

Gutter holes stuffed with rabbits' feet
as blood ran through the street
blindfolds washed up on the shore
in the alleyways of limbos' door
