REBEL EYELIDS

I look at you... 
and for a moment
my eyelids drop
ecstasy prevails
but then solitude
takes over
they open up again
to see the starlight
once more and...
not even the night
will succeed in
yielding
the rebel eyelids!
it's unnatural
this perverted game
fearing the loved one
will dissolve
in a flap of wings
can lead to damned
total blackout
but I love you...
no!
these eyes will remain
open or closed
for ever!
