IntotheGreatWideOpen

Days come and go like raindrops

That wash away what's real

Thoughts come and go leaving traces

I am here but I can't feel

I'm awake

My heart is beating

My feet are losing ground and

I can hear

That I'm still breathing

It's me

It's me

Into the great wide open

I'm drifting away

Longing for silence

Into the great wide open

But emptiness spreads out its wings

Time's standing still –no motion

Rotation in my head

Trembling skin enfolds me

I'm alive but I feel dead

I cannot move

It's like I'm frozen

I move my lips but there are no words left

Life is plain but there's a rose in

That blooms

Still blooms

Into the great wide open

I'm drifting away

Longing for silence

Into the great wide open

But emptiness spreads out its wings
