Eating Sand

Contributed by Mangos on Monday, 24th July 2006 @ 07:48:39 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



If you know yourself so well
How is the predictable so commonly felt
What you feel you lack in principle
Are those things you wish to forget
Is that feeling you can never shake
Are those habits you can never break

If you care like you claim to
Where are you
When it needs you
When it calls out your name
With words that please you
Is the world that keeps you
Alive and feeds you
Food for the brain
For the blood that sustains and heat you

If you were never here
Or the place before
The house on the beach
The two front doors
Open and leads, into a hall of retreat
Where in your room
You would bang on the walls
Shout from your lungs
And feel destroyed

If you never came
And never went
Distance saved up
A travel expense
Unravel the suspense
Keep yourself in the dark
The gravel glides intent
Under your feet in the yellow bricked park

If you are over
Then why are you still around
If this is closure
Then why is the spiral still bound
To the laws of gravity
And the physics of sound
The logistics are faulty
The plan is to reach common ground

_________
