Watching through windows
we don’t see one another
only fallen leaves —
still we all walk hand in hand
towards the dinner table

Life mountain high
elusive peace and quiet
must I climb or fall? —
Sitting watching life go by
it’s not so bad after all

Life’s just a cycle
spring, summer, autumn, winter
still can’t remember —
Darker nights; colder mornings
memories were its sunshine

Does it comfort you
to see that I cannot swim
knowing no escape —
Yet the sewer in your heart
was once a beautiful pond

Walking past traffic,
many questions on my mind —
Do I walk funny
hate the way these trainers sit
really need a haircut

Aboard my own boat
in the oceans of my mind
fire-like waves frighten —
The aftermath, a shipwreck
lost and stuck out here at sea

What can you expect
if you haven’t got a heart,
a date with your mind —
I only want to find the
fools who locked me up inside

Once again I trudge
through the circus in my mind
outrageous and cruel —
All roads blocked by discontent
been left to my own devices
