I lost my sight
No more can I see
The parasites of life

The demon eyes
Of our mortal world
No longer haunt me
With their hellish glow

Still

They're there
As I feel them
Red, hot
Beaming maliciously
Scanning me
Observantly
Waiting for me to cringe

In losing my sight
Blinding me
Hiding me from the demons
I also lost the light
The brilliance
Bright

So evident before
Now it's hidden
In the darkness that is mine

But like the burning
The eyes beaming
I sense the light
I feel the comfort
Its warmth
Cleansing me

So shall I
With the advantage of my faith
Forever know
The demons still lurk
But more importantly
The light still shines
