Lost
I know I’ve been lost in daydreams too long.
Yet still I can’t stop the sway of their song.
Like a child who never wants to sleep
So I keep myself from the end of a dream.
Actions and Reactions are played in my mind.
To the fulfillment of wishes and prolonging of time.
Like a habit forgotten, it is easily revived.
Like a comatose patient I am lost in my mind.
K. Leigh
I am a subject, and subject to authority.
Like Socrates, after speaking his truth to the court,
Accepted their decision of death as penalty
So I must accept the reactions of authority to me.
Be it strange or unjust, how will it hurt the truth I speak?
Truth transcends authority
Unlike mortal me.
K. Leigh
It is hard to celebrate now
When you know the future’s coming strong.
And you’ve hoped for so long
That those moments were behind you.
Is this an illusion?
A dream before the nightmare?
The calm before a storm?
And I am sitting forlorn.
Aware of the fact
That my troubles are not gone.
K. Leigh
