Were you free of desire?
Did you see a light
Did you think of the past
Did you feel it was alright?
Where would we go from there
With the curtain finally drawn
Certainly life without
Still goes on
I felt it grow
Felt myself let go
And my mind turned loose
Free of the need to choose
I was watching myself
Like I watched someone else
on a park bench
By a garden
I could’ve leaped
Almost asleep
I will be a memory someday
Live in loved ones minds
Come up in conversation
From time to time
Will I be a ghost
Roaming lonely halls
A picture in a frame
On a wall
I felt it grow
Felt myself let go
And my mind turned loose
Free of the need to choose
I was watching myself
Like I watched someone else
on a park bench
By a garden
I could’ve leaped
Almost asleep
