Asleep
Quiet in the night
Life at momentary stop
Waiting for the sun
The share its awakening light
I will get up
And start my day
But I will not be the only one
I can see the man i have never met
As he rolls out of bed
Perhaps we will walk past each other
And share a simple nod, a simple time
My day will move on
Rituals will be done
Habits to be fulfilled
Addictions to suck me back in
But when I wake in morning time
And walk that path again
Something new
A friendly wave
Not the same as before
But it stirs my thoughts
As I look back to Yesterday Man
And today to Tomorrow Man
It’s a timeless range
But to all of them, I am the one who’s strange
Strange
I have definitely done this before
But I am clueless in this life
With darkness I must stop
Frozen in the blind
Things I knew before
Have moved and warped
Never in the same place
Time will tell the light to appear
But if you wait for that time
It will never come
To walk the unknown
With your head held high
To realize the light is to be created within
No matter where you have been
I take pieces from everyone I see
And lead a string for people to follow me
I would consider myself the leader
Though all I was doing was following my dream
Knowing that all of those that have been seen
Have been known
By those that live in my unknown
Yet they don’t have to be
I can learn to look around
I can learn to take what I found
Twist it around and try to be profound
But is this really the answer
Simple happiness everyone
Just say hello to that next passing stranger
