Whoa, Here we go!
Saturday, February 9, 2008 by Mirju
With one foot on the doorstep,
The other out, once more
I’m heading to the vast unknown
Just like you did before.
What lies ahead on dusty roads?
Who knows? Who cares? Let’s go!
Just pass the time, enjoy the ride,
No use of being slow.
A muddy-coloured whirlwind,
That’s what the world seems now
Let’s make a bet: one to regret
Will be the first one down.
See those crows – they’re gazing
At us with interest
We pass them by, they rise to fly
To where they think is best.
The haze around the fading sun
Beckons us to follow
Another mile, a tired smile,
We’ll dream with souls still hollow
Chasing something out of reach
But yet to fall and fail
Along the way, thoughts gone astray,
On morning winds they sail.
Against the wish to feel alive
There’s nothing to be done
And so it goes, and so it goes
By morning we’ll be gone.
