In the world between the daylight
and the darkness of our souls

In a state of being where thoughts flow
as water o/'/er the shoals

Gently swirling eddys in the corners of my mind
Stir up cloudy images of things I/'/ve left behind

Drifting pictures of the past that float by as I sleep,
Painfully reminding me of memories buried deep...



Words of anger said in haste
Loves and friendships gone to waste
Vainly struggling to turn back the hands of life/'/s eternal clock


Faster now the water races
A myriad of familiar faces
As the rapids smash my hopes and dreams upon the jagged rocks...




Dreaming is supposed to be
a refuge from reality

Mine, I am afraid to say
don/'/t ever seem to be that way

In the world between the daylight

In a state of being where thoughts flow

Gently swirling eddys in the corners of my mind
Stir up cloudy images of things I/'/ve left behind

Painfully reminding me of memories buried deep...

Vainly struggling to turn back the hands of life/'/s eternal clock
