Analysis of Behind Closed Eyes
Carlyle E. Vice 1988
Behind closed eyes,
Time stands still,
And reality,
Transforms into Millions,
Of fragmented shards.
Each embedded with worlds,
untold.
Waiting to be plucked,
Into existence,
As new truths unfold.
Imprinting on the souls,
Of those willing,
To relinquish control.
