Beyond Sense

I am one and two together
Perhaps in the past
I was more and
Perhaps I had never been before!

If I know that before
I'll panic
I'll run away where myself
I'll go toward the light of dawn
In amazement

I'll pull my shadow
to the mirrors,
Are the mirrors in the darkness night
reflects the shades?!

Who I am? 
Why the silence gripped my tongue! 
Where did the words hide?  

Is it in a vacuum!
In question in the answer
In the flame of fire,
Or in the cold of stone!

 I do not know. 

Come, awaken the sleeper inside me,
Awaken the clay where seeds
Slept inside 

Let the wind to be a chapter, 
Let the death to be a chapter, 
Let the torments which grown
In my fear a chapter 
And wake up if you wish  
Like a cry.

I am not but what I am
One and two together
Maybe I was more
Or perhaps,
I had never been before.
