Hole In The Sky
There is something happening
Out there beyond those trees
Flashing lights
And a lot of noise
Through a hole in the sky
It is brighter now
Pulsing faster
It is coming for someone
I hope it is not for me
It is going to take a life
I hope it is not mine
I do not have dreams anymore
At least not fluid dreams
Only still pictures
Of the dreariest days
In some never changing world
They flip through my mind
Like and old photo album
Detailing the most uninteresting lives
Of private ghosts
Ghosts of my thoughts
All of the experiences
That got sent to that one area
In my mind that only manages to escape
When there is not consciousness
To keep guard
Thoughts I would rather not confront
Only fleeing when I could not possibly stop them
Setting me free as they change
The make up of the mind
That traps them
They will escape
Something is indeed happening
Out there beyond those trees
Someone will lose their life tonight
I only hope it is not me
