Everything you've ever seen,
Forget it all.
Forget that each day after another your dreams
Go unanswered.
Take heed, the spinning world around
Continues to revolve
At speeds unknown to you, without sound
That breaks your concentration
On secret hopes you dare not mention.
Once you taste full life again
You gradually forget
The escapades that closed your mouth;
And you re-open the silver mine.
Shining words like magnets
Reel in stray passers-by
And one of them is carrying
The answers and the dreams
Around her neck, and in her warm, sweet hands.
