Thoughts of You and More

New Year...New Play

The moon at its zenith

Pocket the night of 'today'

As the end of yesterday bequeathed

The start of a new play

...

I slip out of a maze

Danced my way through tangled paths

Under the moon's watchful gaze
Picked my way through at last

...

Exit the horror of yet another rerun..

Trapped in the masquerade..
But the Wheel has again spun..

Naïve thoughts fade

...
The chime of midnight..

The ticket to yet another Party..

You can neither flee nor fight..

Only scavenge what you can to be happy..

...

You can run any way..

And still be trapped in Time's game..

And even though more change..
Yet more stays the same

...

Beneath the dark eternity of the velvet sky

The Labyrinth below equally bespeckled

However with living shadows, instead of light

Intricate footwork..and carefully masked to dazzle

...

Twirling about, yet my heart bleeds through my eyes..

Glistening silently beneath the self-same façade

Pearls to match the diamonds up high..

Hidden in shadow..cushioned by the dark

...

I stumble out of a maze, a ball..
Thought I had finally reached the end of the song..

To find new music Time has in store
And once more, I dance along
...

The moon at its zenith

Pocket the night of 'today'...

And the death of yesterday birthed..

The beginning of another play
