Slumber stirring.



I find myself at slumber
On a vast and tranquil sea,
Everything is silent
There's nothing only me.

Time here has no meaning
Exept the here and now,
I feel my life's suspended
Not knowing where or how.

I'm seeing hearing nothing
There's not much i can do,
I feel I'm slowly floating
In this colourless misty due.

I see a light that softly glows
And reach out with my soul,
But it seems that I must stay
Within this motionless endless loll.

At times these waters whisper
I hear them softly call,
One day perhaps they'll guide me
And on the shore I'll fall.
