And I have seen into the eyes of men
Full of fear and bewilderment
A realm where boastful fabrications
Those live half-lived
Owing to total accountability
Looking for longevity
In the eyes of an ignorant mortal
Seeking strength that fails them
Searching for hope in reality
Slipping from its tenuous grasp
A place where those who deny God
Find desolation and solitude
Those who slid through life
A brief maze with no exit
Crossing the transom of life
Until that last moment bound
That last ephemeral breath
Awaits oblivion's dimension
Where mortality melts away
And anonimity takes its place
Some slip silently, serenely away
Others as drowning in the eddy
A chasm vast and steep
Where no one escapes
And fear cannot be found
There are no buffers, no boundries
That can soften the truth
That the end looming, awaits near
Peering, imploring, eyes full of fear
