I woke up alone in my bed
welcoming the air to cave in
creating a melody as I breathe out
making the rays dance around my room
then my heart took another beat
and the walls were tuned in
like a crowd clueless about the show
stories beneath me, my feet stepped on
memories reviving from floor’s glory
an ancient soul could have sworn
I was the first to feel this lonely
life surrendered as I whispered
agony to push my soul up
from a surface of forged memories
resisting reality to keep me numb
for once, I was able to feel the sky
lifting my tanned fingers to wrap the clouds
a bird rested on my branch to ask
“how does it feel to wander bewildered,
wrecking the future and sleeping wounded,
reaching the sky to neglect the ground’s fight?
I will get you down for one more chance
but remember, it will be you leading the way.
it has been a pleasure meeting you,
I will read a story to wake you.”
