Yesterday I woke up but my body wasn't there
Just a dying glimpse of longing & despair
Locked between night & day, all that I could be
It seems that you found me there & swallowed the key
Yesterday I woke up down on the frozen shore
Near the stones covered in white, I found an open door
The other side was the same, but it's all I wished to see
Love still blind, lies obvious, & none of us free
I saw mountains of moss, roads paved with ice
Books written without words – a thought reading device
I sang the silence & the mute birds replied
A welcoming tune from that other side
Lakes, cities & people were different & the same
The picture had same colors, but a better frame
Their gardens weren't Eden, yet with love they were filled
While our fields were being soaked in all the blood we spilled
Yesterday I woke up & couldn't recall the dream
Just a dying, distant vision of surface lost in gleam
Locked between night & day, I knew what I could be
But while I slept, someone came & threw away the key
N.B.
