A thousand faces
Apparitions of nameless men
With their souls bruised and burnt
Carved as maps into brows and lips
Unveiled and bare for the world to see
Unhindered in the dying gray sunlight
And the eyes
Windows to sepulchers of dust covered memories
Glanced like glints of sunlight
Shimmering into the sea of a thousand faces
Distant and gone
A thousand faces
Apparitions of nameless men
With their souls bruised and burnt
Carved as maps into brows and lips
Unveiled and bare for the world to see
Unhindered in the dying gray sunlight
And the eyes
Windows to sepulchers of dust covered memories
Glanced like glints of sunlight
Shimmering into the sea of a thousand faces,
Distant and gone
They glanced like glints of sunlight
Distant and gone
Distant
Distant
Distant and gone
