What is it we are When we are not? When are eyes are firmly closed Held tight by the pressure of the night Setting itself on our minds Making us yawn And driving us to thinkΒ Β That it is time to sleep What are we in the dreams We never grasp in the lapse Of Time our minds race Against the clock to store What we long for and think of Throughout the day we see The light and all the dust Dancing in a ray Emanating out of pillows And couches as soon as our weight clasps And we fail to catch And our hands go past And we do not remember The gravity of such A waste of hastily Floating particules Just as much as our cerebral activity Goes on a never ending cycle The vicious circle A train that goes round and round and round Stops on the usual platforms Embarks all of the familiar faces Closes it's doors on strange noses The rails squeak and whirl Speed up to maximum speed Speedy Gonzales And you are out of the dark gloomy woods The forbidden paths Where there are no signs Are rarely taken For granted But when the engine has no choice But to melt with the hollows It cuts the road in two And disperse itself in half of you Your eyes go blank And you wonder what felt wrong Strangely clement Yet you close your them backwards For you never face these unknown noses too They might mistake your head for an entire map of the world And they might have a clue About what you might be Or might be thinking about
