there

you are not here really
your legs may touch ground
the sounds may seem all so familiar
but your mind is elsewhere
somewhere near the moon and yesterday
all the atoms are array
the limbs are looser than usual
nothing is heavy enough
it all goes up
landing on some distant rock
where we know nothing of
lost in a make believe shadow
everything is so different
now that we have found
that we are not really here
merely existing in mirrors
that have been merged with dreams
that have always been out of our reach

we are not here
nor there
nor anywhere
simply moving along
in worlds where nothing is certain
i am certain of it now
the ground cannot take
what we cannot give
we are living outside of our bodies
none of this belongs to me
or you

a pair of hands is writing this all down
in the sand and in the air
we are mere verbs in someone else's wordplay
what we feel is a million world's away
we are not really here
what happens will merely extend into another existence
that we have not yet witnessed
a piece of us is missing
floating along
here and there
near somewhere I am sure will find us
in due time
in due time
