With darkness around me, I am lying on the ground

Damp under my body, with tears that leaked without sound

Unaware of anything, unseeing of all

I wait in the darkness, for my own reichenbach  fall

The pain has ebbed long ago, leaving only scars behind

That aren’t even physical, but exists in my mind

And that is where it doesn’t stop, The racing thoughts everywhere,

Leaving behind a confused mind, utterly unaware.

I don’t wait for any light; I don’t wait for any helping hand

I wait for only the ocean tide to sweep me away like sand.

And leave me somewhere, deep within itself,

Where even thoughts leave my presence

And I can finally know my true essence.

Nirvana, the guy in the orange drab called it,

The thoughtless space where nothing exists with everything.

That is what I strive for, lying on the damp ground

With tears leaking from my eyes, and the pain being gone

I want to sway with the wind as the nightingale’s song

I wish complete silence for forever long.

And then maybe I promise, to rise again from the ocean

To stop long enough for you to hear my tune

To dance with you under the shine of the moon

I may then promise to let you near me,

To bear my soul, my heart for your soul only

But until I reach to the destination I have planned

I am afraid my plane will fly unmanned.

It will drift on the ocean waves shifting course from course,

It will sway with the wind, reaching new mountains and shores.

My journey may not be visible to your eyes,

My destination will not exist on your maps

It is and will remain within me,

My world away from your worldly traps.

Lying on the damp ground,

I am not waiting for any light, or any helping hand

I am waiting for the ocean tide to sweep me away like sand

I am waiting for the wind to sway me before long

So I can ride with it as the nightingale’s song.
