“Crash into Reality”

I raise my head towards the sky, to see a ring of clouds pass by
my head of swelling agony, inside a world I seldom see.
A fleeting glance at coming night.
The spectral change of setting sunlight.

How I long… How I think,
with every quest, that I pursue.
The tide has washed me, now I sink,
to rise again a new.

A sparrow perched against the sky, sings a sad, sweet lullaby.
She sees the anguish that I feel, so sings to me for wounds to heal.
Yet, with the sun still in my eye,
I sink, still deeper, through the lie.

The bird has flown, the clouds elapsed,
and night has now encompassed me.
The seed within me, now has passed, the fog lifts, and I see,
the longing still a mystery,
as I crash… into reality.
