Namaste

A butterfly floats on the breeze of a sun lit day
As I feel this reality gently fade away
Riding on a thought to see where it´s from
Gliding through a memory of a time yet to come
Smoke paints the air swirling images through my mind
Like a whirlpool spin beginning to unwind
And I stand at the edge cautiously awaiting
As time slips by carefully navigating
By the stars in the sky and I sit and I think to myself
And on the horizon the sun light begins to climb
And it seems like it´s been so long since he shined
But I´m sure it was only yesterday
A cold chill of fear cut through me
I felt my heart contract to my mind
I brought the image of light and I expanded out of it
My fear was just a shadow and then a voice spoke in my head
And she said
Dark is not the opposite of light
It´s the absence of light
And I thought to myself she knows what she´s talking about
And for a moment I knew what it was all about
As I feel this reality gently fade away
Riding on a thought to see where it´s from
Gliding through a memory of a time yet to come
Smoke paints the air swirling images through my mind
Like a whirlpool spin beginning to unwind
And I stand at the edge cautiously awaiting
As time slips by carefully navigating
By the stars in the sky and I sit and I think to myself
And on the horizon the sun light begins to climb
And it seems like it´s been so long since he shined
But I´m sure it was only yesterday
A cold chill of fear cut through me
I felt my heart contract to my mind
I brought the image of light and I expanded out of it
My fear was just a shadow and then a voice spoke in my head
And she said
Dark is not the opposite of light
It´s the absence of light
And I thought to myself she knows what she´s talking about
And for a moment I knew what it was all about
