Back & Forth


She's rocking in her rocking chair, back & forth
East to west and south to north
When she's there she's there, but when she's gone she's gone
And with those that haunt her she'll be among

From where she was she's now amiss
As she falls into the black depths of the abyss
Deep into the choking smog of her delusional obsession
Free falling through the silver lined clouds of her past life regression

Forwards she rocks and then she's back
Time's meandering and she's losing track
Back & forth, sometimes here, but mostly there
She's somewhere, someplace, in a place elsewhere

All those delirious fantasies they gradually crept
Up to a cliff edge of blind faith, a place from where she leapt
Into a time tunnel of malevolent myths where The World reversed
Into a vortex she tripped; in absurdity she immersed

Backwards, forwards, from side to side
She's slowly slipping without time to bide
She's back & forth, as she sits there mumbling
In her lost eyes her sanity's crumbling

Has she finally found for what she longs?
For she's somewhere else when she speaks in tongues
She frowns, she drools, for where she is cannot appease her
For she crashed and burned with FMS and cryptomnesia

She's rocking in her rocking chair, back & forth
East to west and south to north
When she's there she's there, but when she's gone...
And with those that haunt her, she will belong
