My World Flickers
I live in life's darkest shadows,
Black and white, my inward mind,
No rainbow colours, in this world,
My nights flicker, like a cine film.
The spinning reel , turns my world,
My soul lost and found in dream.
The dream is not a dream but real,
As my heart flickers about a wheel.
Time shies from life's inward gaze,
The curtain falls, about my mind,
Life's Varied truth, a wayward maze
Serenity restored in black and white.
The flickering heart, it skips a beat,
Your world does not belong to me.
As I embrace forgotten pasts,
The wheel keeps spinning in my eyes .
Project my stolen eyes, living in solitude
On screens where thoughts are tuned
Where the past, in dreams were born,
A place of gratitude, a heart, born to die.
Through the lens I live and breathe
To those who graced the screen,
"Your world, you can keep outside ."
As my world flickers, about a wheel .
