Just In Time

I bury my thoughts in my head because someone wish that I would drop down and dead I keep moving in the line to conceal my identity from the divine A strange figure keeps creeping up behind me just to keep my company, it had no physical body but always appears in the shape of a human Its presence is strong, and it can penetrate you from a distance It is something that no one can understand But it set me in motion for the next destination I bury my thoughts in my head for the people Believe every word that I have said The people standing in line behind me have surrendered to my philosophy I held the jigsaw puzzle upside down and exchange a diamond for a crown The crowd around me began to swell And all of a sudden, the thoughts start popping out of my head, everything began to flow and my spirit began to grow and the crowd went wild, the bodyless presence was still standing behind me Telling me to enjoy their company I could not quiet the storm, but a gentle wind blow and at last I could begin the show What have I to do with the ship at sea and what have I to do with the Villigers in the valley A thousand years have passed since the treasure was found But that village is no longer around But its myth lives on and the deep blue sea keeps rolling on I stood at the front of the line To anchor the ship and take what is rightfully mine I bury my thoughts in my head For I was standing close to the edge Everyone was calling out to me And in the middle of the excitement I regain my energy and the space around me enlarge And courage elevates me to the top just in time.
