Feel Like Falling

Day outside grows black

I lie faceup in my shell

Squeeze my eyes shut

And feel like falling into blank space

Had allowed that life to drift

For I’ve chosen a different trail

When light fades

I feel like falling into blank space

So you realized

Ingested real life

Grew up in the time of

Pushing through the crowds

So you realized

Chose unreal life

Settled in the mobile

Handy pocket size

Wanted to be your light

Illuminate your smiles

Wanted to be your cure

Bridge between self and us

Wanted to be your prayer

Wipe the tears from your eyes

But I turned my back

Could have been a tree of dawn

Rooted deeply in the ground

Bearing fruits

Far away from falling into blank space

But I took refuge from myself

In the crowded solitude

Now I dash

And feel like falling into blank space

Wanted to be your light

Illuminate your smiles

Wanted to be your cure

Bridge between self and us

Wanted to be your prayer

Wipe the tears from your eyes

But I turned my back

Got lost inside
