LINES OF THOUGHT © 2013
Like a static stone, sometimes I find myself,
In reserve, quiet, in my own little shelf,
Observing the world that spins all around,
Without haste, without longing, just the silence profound.
In my condition, I make the gaze
A safe refuge where I can stay,
And every detail that passes and slips
Stays trapped in the soul, where time never clips.
But deep down, I am the clown, I know,
For not following the caravan that advances in tow,
I choose another rhythm, another place,
While the world rushes, I prefer to embrace.
Am I mad for such a choice?
Or perhaps just a dreamer, giving voice?
In my static stone, I see and I feel,
That sometimes, the wisest is what seems surreal.
