Lost in time



Lost in time, it seems
explosion of Ideas come,
explosion of Ideas go, without knowing What is the reality.

I walk quickly and I see a thousand things, and when i think i understand
 they are no longer.

 I can not stop,
 shows me my fears and
 throws me into the dark, where
 the perfect hiding place is.

 I want to speak, but my tongue
 resist, nothing is the same.

 I see in seconds how they fall
 the walls of my imagination,
 there is only one step left and I can't
 to return.

 Move on, a naked voice tells me,
 don't stop, the sky falls apart
 and hell is behind you, move on.

 I hear my cries
 I hear my screams
 the end is coming,
 chaos burns inside me.

 I feel tears on my face
 that dance to the sound of fire
 that burns, I feel nothing,
 just disappointment.


 I walk slowly and do
silence and ideas come as
lamps on and everything is clear now.

A deep silence runs through
my whole body and what i feel
exceeds all I know,
what I know and I return to my truth.
