Symbols flashing on and on and
I don't know where I'm coming from.
I think I'm in a whirlwind of
disarray and confusion.
My mind takes on a whole new world
of opportunity, but my heart can't
let go of the reality beside me.
The world seems to shut the hope
out and chokes my inner thoughts
to lifelessness.
The winding staircase leads to
a dream that can't be imagined
unless I put on a cape of illusion.
My stone faced silence blankets
all thought and comforts the soul
to sleep.
