He and She


When the moon climbs up high

And the stars start to sigh

He strolls in my mind

And she makes my heart grind


I hang the 'Do Not Disturb' sign

They barge in nonetheless

And like some children in a playhouse

They leave me in a mess


I think he's an engineer

As he works my mind's gear

While she must be a lovely artist

Who makes my puzzles weird


She's an emotional nerd

He, a clever fool

But who am I to complain

They're students of my own school


He's my noisy thought

She's my silent feeling

Their hobby is to trouble me

And more often it's when I'm sleeping


But when he starts to feel

And she starts to think

They stop the wheels of time

To cast an eternity in a blink


That's when they're the worst

When they both so innocently wink...
