Borrowed Life

Mandrake (Ger)

On silent shores we once stood
listening to the waves
slipping into distant dreams
free to become slaves

In cloudless nights we once awoke
staring at the lack of light
hiding before worlds unseen
free to ignore their sight

Teardrops falling down
so mortal and sublime
i shiver as i speak
beneath the dawn of time

In dreamless sleep we once arrived
breathing impulse, borrowed life
