Encapsulated by thought as it passes through
the temple of my mind.
Whimsically unfolding itself and
ignorant to time.
Its essence creates a dance choreographed
by my existence.
And it rises and falls to the notes of my life.
Play me a melody so I may free myself
from its grip.
For its temper is short and its
voice so very loud, so very loud.
Play me the song of silence so I may
rest within its arms.
