A Mid Winter Dream
Sitting here watching the snow fall from the confines of my room,
Through the frost covered windows, concealing me in my doom.
A doom of my own creation slowly fills the air and the light begins to dimmer...
Till I get fed up and replace the burnt out bulb.... hit the switch, and *FLICKER!*
On comes the light, out goes the dark, yet im still trapped in my house.... but yet... a SPARK
Of imagination, and suddenly my whole world is gone,
Gone from this place to another far beyond.
Beyond time, Beyond Space,
Beyond your imagination's waste.
A land of fantasy and Sci-fi! a land of mystery and suspense!
A land where kitty cats ROAR like lions, and penguins dance!
I skip happily along the trails of my mind
And seldom question that which I find.
I just speed along on my merry way,
Till suddenly a blank i forgot what to say
... No more can I dream, no more can I rhyme, as if somebody smashed the gears in my...
Head?
No, thats not what I said..
A rambling mind,
Lost to time, lost to ambition, too lost to find.
So I wake with a sudden FLASH AND SPARK
And reach for my still beating heart.
Once more I find myself back in my room
And again I feel that man-made doom.
But I begin to laugh and i dont know why...
Until I remember why I started to cry.
Not for pain of loss, or want or need..
Just because I forgot what it was to be me.
Trapped behind the glass panes made of steel and iron bars.
My heart beat flutters like the engine to a muscle car!
I dress to impress, I get clean and keen.
I burst from my house, suddenly im on the scene.
A scene that has been forgot, but never lost,
Trudging my way into the snow, I remember again,
What it is to be my own boss.
