Analysis of Another Life



Far beyond this life I live, another place and time.
Exists a reality far from what my mind can fathom.
A tear = a smile.
A smile, a state of calm.
In both worlds calm.
One sad, one glad.
A song elicits a response.
Here anger, there bliss.
Two worlds, one mind.
Trapped in one, longing for the other.
