Pie in the Sky

I looked into unseeing eye;
it didn't blink

Tears pooled blurring my vision....

Perhaps I could pass through that shuttered gaze,
probe deeper within;
pass by blood and tissue
and reach the fleshy beating heart?

I closed my eyes and appealed with words,
clawed blindly at emotional walls;
pleaded with silent screams at pie in the sky dreams....but

Treachery had been there first;
plucking away...
stealing the heart with its persuasive sway
