Soul
The train kept running ahead
The trees, houses run behind
Peeping through the window
My prying eyes
My mind keeps busy
Keeps thinking ahead
The train stops
I get into vehicle on road
The journey continues
I run, I walk by
Past the streets, homes
Many move alongside
Then I sleep
My dreams carry thoughts
I wake up next day
I see another day
The same trees and houses
Keep running behind
All the way I thought
I was moving ahead
Little did I know
Its a circle all around
The Almighty is watching
us running behind
I realize my soul
My body lies behind
