Back Before the Air Shattered

Back Before the Air Shattered

A Poem by Don BeeKeeper
"

About the truth of perception -- also a video http://youtu.be/psl-BUSMvdQ

"
I used to run and jump
and hide away so well
in the games we played 
the games we played
back before the air shattered

I stop for I see
what you say isn't real
and you may be right

I used to sing the songs
you all sang so well
in our time together
our time together
back before the air shattered

I stop for I hear
what you say isn't real
and you may be right

I used to hold my cheek
against the life I knew
in our dance together
our dance together
back before the air shattered

I stop for I feel
what you say isn't real
but how could that be right?
