death cannot comprehend
the life i give
please don't open up
what i fear to close
unwarranted dimensions
here and there, everywhere
unforeseen circumstances
everywhere, here and there
i ask you to
tear away the sane and
scare away the insane
will you tear me away--
or will you scare me away?
will you do neither--
or will you do both?
maybe i no longer exist, even to you
do you recall?
you were the dead that i made into life
please tell me that you remember
please do not say those words to me again:
"time out of mind"
i am no longer mad. you are on my mind.
but have you gone mad? am i on your mind?
no; it is my turn to speak.
please don't open up...
what i am unwilling to close
