O to entire worlds,
Built behind sand-filled eyes,
Reality's to which we're hurled,
Some where no man dies;
Or cries for things lost.
O to stay in this drift,
I would pour the sand myself,
Gladly is, the paradigm shift.
Storing wakefulness upon a shelf;
Subconsciousness the host.
O to each and every night,
Be someone less broken, anew,
To surrender this fight,
Turn away truly awoken, askew;
Willing walker of this ghost.
O to fall up instead of down,
Live through futures unfound,
Breathe the void, and not drown,
Feel them all, yet never bound;
To the places we treasure most..
