Why can we not have one another
In this world where everything
Is so magnificent
We live with this feeling of celestial power
Even in the wild, uncivilized
We have such beauty
As if it is only
Appearing for our eyes
Our almighty gaze
Searing the darkness
Of beauty and splendor
Our almighty gaze
Everything material, everything aesthetic
Is free to us
Yet we are not free
Not free to have anything of morality
We are not able to speak of our fears
We are not able to speak of our philosophies
These glorious objects and landscapes
Which continually surround us
Fuel a distraction from what we truly miss
What we really need
I do not need gold
I demand nothing optical
What I desire is unseen
An invisible force between souls
We have such beauty
As if it is only
Appearing for our eyes
Our almighty gaze
Searing the darkness
Of beauty and splendor
Our almighty gaze
