Eyes Like Nightshade

As equals, we meet
Time collapses
Silently, you turn to me
An outline, a silhouette

Eyes like nightshade
Eyes like-

Cleanse me, teach me
In your gentle resilience
As time slows, stay close to me

I am flying in my sleep
I am flying in my sleep

It's like lightning finds me
When you're around
Flashing curiously

Past the borders of the frame
Ink on the page
Eclipse me, reveal me

Eyes like nightshade
Eyes like nightshade
Eyes like nightshade
Eyes like nightshade
