Deja vu again
I am a prisoner
Of my own mind
A traveler of sorts
Seemingly, from another time
Without recollection
The “wheres”, can I ever find
Silence, she is an enemy
Returns the sense of thoughts
The uneasy feeling of “déjà vu”
The aware of where I’m not
The stillness, my fortuneteller
Catastrophe always lies ahead
Destined with loneliness
Sleepless nights my constant friend
One solution upon my discoveries
To always move forward
And endure to the bitter end
Maybe, when I leave this Earth
I can return home once again
