Array ( [sid] => 167104 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Lucid Waking [time] => 2011-08-25 01:02:10 [hometext] => Dreamed up in the early morning, during the most reflective period. [bodytext] => If only I could float adrift,
through memories which I have to sift,
the deepest depths of my soul were killed,
Bliss and joy were heartily fulfilled.

I swim into an ocean, vast and grey
No difference is made if it's day.
The water sings a dynamic lament
Which only acts to further cement.

I walk through a forest, dark and tall
It makes my ego very small,
The darkest and blackest and dampest night
Where Earth's vast sun is a desired sight.

Concrete jungle, manmade mess,
Multiplies the people's distress.
Awake through night, awake through day,
Mortality it does not delay.

I surf on beams of molten light
It seems to be a successful flight.
Whether or not I would clasp it tight,
Depends not on if it's wrong or right.

Bundled together, weak and strong,
It does not matter, all along.
Seize every second on a whim,
Regardless of the mood it'll bring.

Here is the twist, I'm willing to tell,
Existence is just a passing smell,
Life may seem long to you or I,
We stare too long at the sky,
And our flame burns out,
In the blink of an eye.
