CRYSTAL SKULLS

   In the middle of the night a year ago
I awoke from my sleep feeling uneasy
Since that night I’ve never been the same
And that feeling has stuck with me

I set out on a journey not knowing where
I was going and not knowing why
Something has been pulling me and
Guiding me like a star in the sky

I’ve heard voices in the night but I
Can never make out what they say
I’ve had restless nights and feeling
Drained of my energy more each day

I don’t know what compels me
And I’m uncertain of my destiny
I’m being driven by an unknown force
Like something from ancient history

I’ve left everything I’ve ever known
Far behind me, it’s all just a faded memory
Last night In total darkness I pitched
A tent on the shore of an unknown sea

This morning I awoke in the early light of
Dawn to the sound of shrinking seagulls
As my eyesight began to focus I realized
The beach was sand and Crystal Skulls
