I had my arms clasped to my knees

And my teeth clenched together

This time yesterday, I had slept and was yawning

And now I'm waiting for the stars to emerge

Waiting for the clouds to disappear

This time yesterday I had slept

This might be an opportunity 

But the house seems too empty 

And voices were low and unheard 

I packed my baggage and headed out

I could sit outside looking at the galaxy 

Or near an ocean feeling the breeze

And I'm not blind or deaf

And yet I can't see or hear

I let my hands play gently on the rusty leaves

And my fingers jingle bell along

Too deep I was lost

All alone in this winter

And yet my thoughts were clouded

Having them around might be traumatic

The day will be too short

And the night will stay longer

The galaxy will keep us awake 

And the cool breeze will ease to our side

I shall be lost and forgotten

I close my eyes and inhale the wave

And when I did eventually opened it

I was surprised to still found out

I was standing still on the threshold of my house.
