Midnight Eyesight

So, lately it seemsI travel lesson that road less travelled,by the waybecause, you seethese dreams of minethey scatter at the sight of day.

So tell me, pleasewhy do I run so fastright past the people cryingor am I standing as they passme on the road to dying...

Wait one minutestay right there,I'll be backwith news for youand answers too,and in the meantimedon't you worry--life is leisurely and merrilyflying down the highwayover the bridgethat crosses the streamof consciousnessthen passes through the nightand into the light ofjust another day.

So, one more timeforgive me please--what was your name?what did you say?Because, you seeI have forgottenwhat it meansto be someone,someone worth knowing.
