Array ( [sid] => 168978 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Words from an Asylum [time] => 2011-12-02 20:21:37 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Yesterday was Today
Now Tomorrow is finally here
Thus I wait
Thinking and Dreaming of
A Summer that will come
Cold and Slow
Like a forgiving river
Because
Tomorrow has Passed and
Now I know:

If our Past does not come
Then our Future will Die
Without the Wisdom
So Desired.

Simple things become Memories
Yells and Screams
Which blur into Colors
The Colors turn to Snow
Falling on my Ferris Wheel of Love
Now I know:

It is easy to Believe
What the eyes choose to See
A Heart can be fooled
By the sweetest Lips.

Sunshine smiles on the Beach of Time
Rock wearing away
Here I am still Waiting
For the Clock to strike Midnight
Yes
To hear the rings
Feel the Waves turn to Dust
Watch people through a Looking Glass
See a Flaming Sky
Roll on pass
Wishing all the while
To pull a Feather from your Head
Dance beneath a Moon
So take a deep Breath
Seize the day
For Tomorrow is another Past and
Now I know:

Insanity is still a
Reality everyone fails to
See but I embrace what I am
Happily
And now you realize
That Yesterday
I was Here
Waiting
Dreaming
Thinking

Words from an Asylum
