Ten Seconds

Ten seconds the eyes were closed

Then suddenly they opened

As if some gate to destruction

Intrigued cajoling

Did take me before a series of stairs

Where I saw many caricatures of characteristics

Only to unfold mysteries ahead

I do understand it was a dream

Wherein I touched upon

Deep, dented, and cold inscriptions

It was as if slowly getting poisoned

Without bleeding

Staying blue

Now at this moment, I remember

Again those eyes

As they were closed for true.
