unclose

A sense that somebody was close to me made me unclose my eyes.

Dr. May looked at his son, and saw his face clear up, his brow expand, and his lips unclose with admiration.

Xenie heard the distant door of the library unclose, then shut again, and a man's footsteps ringing along the marble hall.

Yet wherefore did he not venture to unclose his eyes within the temple of the Most High?

When he did unclose his eyes, to blink for a moment, he saw that the stars were still vivid in the blue-black sky overhead.

Nay, bend him forward, his eyes unclose again—he sees—he knows us.
