With every blink
your lashes fly
With every blink
your life goes by
With every blink
you despairingly cry
With every blink
you tell a lie
With every blink
You see new worlds
With every blink
Reality unfurls
With every blink
You see them go
With every blink
Everything grows old
With every blink
Your hands start to shake
With every blink
Your eyes slowly fade
With every blink
Their souls go free
With every blink
You realize “it’s just me”
With every blink
You slow down
Tired and lonely
You fall down
Your back on your bed
Eyes up to the sky
And you slowly start to close your eyes
