"They say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one." -John Lennon


Saw saw saw
Back and forth
Life takes it over
Again and again

Each moment
Numbs my body and
exhilarates my mind
Farther and farther it goes

Raw
Real
Pain
I am open

Open to the world
Collecting leaves and dust
Once and a while
A drop of water

Rolls over the contours
Of times both
Good and bad
All the times that are raw

Real

Open to the world
Showered with rain
Tattered from pain
Open to the world

Because real is raw
And raw is real
And sometimes--
It is all I can feel
