Gaze Into

Hmm, so bright the sky tonight So many stars gazing over me I can reach up and touch the sky Into my hand they fall I gaze into the stars and they sing back to me

I gaze into the light of a life once lived Into the window of a soul once known And beyond a single dream of the footsteps before me So long ago was only yesterday And today I gaze into the story of the beginning of one life

Each star a soul Each soul a story untold One never knows the wonder of the tales A spirit surviving in death gazes into the depth of life I gaze into this unknown The emotion of the sphere of my possession to see My passion the essence of my perfection The essential gaze into my individual

So long this regard to seek a steady look at me To gape at the shape of my humanity And gawk at the fixed society Ordinary in its men and women Who gaze into a collective sense

Hmm, so bright my eyes gaze into the unfamiliar All too familiar and strange With no entity or identity I remain nameless New as I gaze into somebody widely known to me alone
