So deep
Then so shallow
Enlightened
Then in darkness
Lonely and quiet
Exposed
And dramatic
Corrupt
Alone in the world
No questions asked
No space in time
So tired
But awake
Cautious about what’s going on
But I don’t care much about it
This has nothing to do with you
Only me
Just the life I live
I’m drowning at sea
No one can see
The life I live
Is not at all
What it seems to be
It is to be
