Every note seems to dance in the air
seeming to tease and strain the ear
Playing at hide and seek
With the particles of sanity
Until suddenly there is a crash
——————
Was it thunder
or just a drum roll
Some lone drummer
long forgotten and old.
——————
There it is again…
the tune that refuses to be
It is deep in my subconscious
ever denying it’s own existence
from where comes this melody?
——————
Maybe it is I who is fading
Maybe this haunting sound
is just my life that is a passing
And I am a mute observer
buried deep inside the ground.
