If Not Too Real

The night… a little lower than before
A chill… a little lighter to feel
This night… a little more so to adore
This feel… a little if not too real

I listen… I do not hear
A fear… I do not know
I yearn… did I endear?
A time… have I a moment to show?

And I see… that be which
A truth… a lie is all there be
What I saw… I’m bewitch
A lie… is all but truth to see

And I follow… I did
I allow… nothing more needs matter
I swallow… for truths to lead
Is life… with truth the better?

This night… a little lower than before
Some chill… heavier to feel
This night… I humbly adore
To feel… a little if not too real
