Visions Dance



As the heart beats in time

To the visions dancing in my mind

The soul searches itself for the answers

Answers fleeting, when not sure of the questions



Searching oneself like a distant foghorn

Crying out to a long lost ship

Heart torn, a hole in its hull



When this song is to be over

Even the conductor is unsure

The dancer dances, the orchestra plays on,

The heart sustains the brunt of the pain to endure



Moreover, as the hour darkens, the escapes like the answer

Nowhere to be found

I’ll once again watch the visions dance to the rhythm in my dreams

Resolved to a lonely night, as I lay my body down
