The Burning Eye

Light is everywhere, radiance all around,
Yet, in the dark, your gaze is profound.

A single eye stares through the lamp’s glow,
Whose quest this is, I still don’t know.

On every horizon, I search for its trail,
Where it hides, my heart can only fail.

On the journey’s path, when I turn around,
Tear-filled eyes meet me, ever so profound.

Oh trees! Hide me in your soothing shade,
The burning eye from the sky has me swayed.

Is it a red eye, or the mark of a dream? Shakira!
Its fire consumes my heart, a silent scream.
