The system continues to spin
like an unending machine.
Will the gears stop turning
when they see just what I am?

Soon, it will be my turn,
to be added to the list.
When the time comes,
will they let me in?

Two are always added,
but I am all alone.
Would it just be better,
if I did not exist?

I walk away from yesterday,
but not towards the future.
I walk away from this world,
but not towards my own.
I walk away from you,
but not towards another.
I walk away from myself,
now the path is lost.

The girl smiles;
The car speeds up;
The man looks down;
The phone goes off;
The girl starts to cross;
The car turns off course;
The man spins the wheel;
The phone falls down;

From the darkness, an energy sprawled.
From the energy, came a dream.
From the dream, formed a memory.
From the memory, I awoke.
