Within
Within
Within the stillness, faint echoes of sounds can be heard
Late night hours, grappling with what is real and the absurd
Hearing indistinguishable voices, conversations overheard
Perhaps just a past memory, lost subconsciously interred
Within the darkness, where all your senses come alive
Clashing with all your fears, deepest emotions revive
Blackness surrounding you, a light thumping arrives
Awakening your heart, kindling your strength to survive
Within the amber light, first light begins to appear
Twilight upon you, your dreamscape interferes
All memories of your dreams suddenly disappear
Eyes adjusting to the light, mind becoming clear
Within that moment, both clarity and confusion begin
Your thoughts and emotions emerge to your chagrin
Those questions and queries making your mind spin
All of these take you on your solemn journey within
