When An Existential Crisis Gets Overdue
I spend time thinking about very normal days
That's I'd rush to return to
Whilst being in normal days that I feel I'm not alive in
In which reality is the slumber
Consciousness blurred
It'll have been written
I won't have read it
The answers available
On a shelf whilst I take all the hours to ponder
What is living
When is the dream
Why do I waste time when it's precious
Why is it impossible to value every second
The valuable downtime
Rest
Just to facilitate inaction
Whatever is bought and paid for
Is wasted or deferred
As I sit conscious but in slumber
Unaware but aware
There are limited tomorrow's
And I'm destined to be dust
*I blame trying to rewrite a Cilla Black song for a contest :D
