Jagged edges cut my arm I do not know what caused the harm I do not know nor do I care The wall is the best place to stare While lying cozy in my bed The wall holds visions in my head Of past times caught up in the flow Mere ten per cent I really know. It rushes past my eyes and then Settles on her face again, So bittersweet and yet I mostly Rue the happy times so ghostly. Come to haunt me in my dreams There’s more to REM than seems So obvious when I’m half awake It all makes sense when life will take Her face from me for just a second Was it to me that she beckoned? I do not know nor understand It slips right through my broken hand. Broken hand? Well time will heal But time from me she tends to steal, Her lips against mine wide awake Please stay asleep if for my sake You wish to follow on and on To nowhere you have been, beyond The sun that’s up, the day is dawned; Her picture in my sleep is gone.
