This State of Confusion

It seems quite the same time after time, I sort through the pieces to see what is mine. The clock is ticking, the spring unwinds. I guess it peace of mind that I’m hoping to find. I feel simply lost, in a state of confusion, Is this what I dreamed or just an illusion? The answer’s before me, but no conclusion, I wonder if all that I see is just delusion. I try just to swim but I go under, I see a flash but hear no thunder. Was it all real or another blunder? I’m still quite uncertain so I wonder. I look to the sky and try to believe, I want to stay but see I must leave. I get entangled in the web that I weave, I haven’t a trick left up my sleeve. I try to move but find I’m unable, All that remains are crumbs at the table. I watch from the edge the ground is unstable, It seems so unreal like what is inside a fable. I look for an answer but none can be found, Life passes by, without making even a sound. My head in the clouds, my feet on the ground, Time after time this continues to come around.
