What lies we spun,

such unwise fun;

free will by the rising sun -



randomly surprising us,

filling our starstruck eyes

with wonderment;



but to ominous night,

a kind reminder of blindness,

promised by naked sky.

I like the poem, but wonder why the on and off rhyming... I think I would suggest not rhyming in S1.

i like the idea of this, but struggle to connect the first too lines with the rest of the poem. love the childish innocence of S2 and a threat of empty sky blindness in S3. is this all a lie? if it is, your cynicism will soon match mine )))
