Things You'll Never See

Many your eyes shall never look upon, 
The world large and yet they even larger
will miss and miss and miss...

How your love perceives it all:
a thing you'll never see.
The underside of the house you grew up in:
a thing you'll never see.
The brain and the heart which make you whole:
All things yours--and things you'll never see.

So with,
Many your eyes shall never look upon,
The world large and yet they even larger
will miss and miss and miss...

The thunder who took your love away:
a thing you'll never see.
The scream she howled aloud in horror:
a thing you'll never see.
Where she left to and her different love:
things you'll never see.
All things hers--and things you'll never see.

So with 
Many your eyes shall never look upon,
The world large and yet they even larger
will miss and miss and miss...

The awful and beautiful sun rising:
a thing she'll never see.
You holding on to another now:
a thing she'll never see.
Your lips closed and a tongue behind them:
things she'll never see.
All things yours and another--and things you'll never see.

So with 
Many your eyes shall look upon,
The world large and yet a heart even larger
will miss.

Things you'll never see,
I've listed many,
Things you'll always be,
But is there anything 
you will see?
