lost soul


bewildered walking down a ghostly road
asking where I am and where’s my abode.

I don’t  remember how I got here,
in my house my mind was very  clear.

sitting at the table when my heart began to spin,
every one around was drinking beer and gin.

I felt like I was floating upwards to the sky,
yet here I am in this place I keep asking why?

the pregnant moon shared Its light so I could see,
that’s it Its just a silly dream I said with glee.

the dead ancient trees conveyed to me
why the night wants to set me free

a distant chilling moan coming from a hill
the smiling bright moon said be still

around me stone markers big and small
the sky grin and rain began to fall

it was a cemetery full  tomb stones
a recent marker was my own
