When You Close Your Eyes

Clasps of crusty sand paper eyes unlocks a world of darkness. The black infinity allows for painter fairies to tiptoe out of solitude, Swirling and dancing until their freedom seemingly runs scarce. Taps of a jewel-encrusted wand flood the gateway opening, And a vision of the unknown imagination takes shape. The spectrum of color expands into the unforeseen, And vibrant specks glimmer through pin pricked holes. Lo & behold does connecting the dots reveal an image of truth, Deep seeded ambitions lie intertwined with a painter fairies’ mind. So, allow for your weary eyes to rest, And let the secrets hidden beneath erupt beyond the darkness.
