Extremities Of My Mind 

In the extremities of my mind,
Were I to fly high, higher and higher
Like a bird flying in the thermal winds 
And as my mind floats by, beyond the clouds
Like a condor dancing high above my firmament.
Gliding elegantly riding those winds of life
Swooping going right across my skies
Diving and climbing hovering watching those down bellow

In a rat race, bumbling through life
Hurrying here and there,
No time to stand and stare
Searching what I know not some illusion

No time to stand still, like automatons they go..
Every moment of their lives their days
Relentlessly, searching this illusion of a life
The unhappiness in their eyes

As they strive, bumbling through life intermediately
As he looks down and sees those that once were part of this
In the mind of my eyes there goes life
That once so prominently, chasing their tails every one of us

Wanting more and more from this life
On the edge living their lives, never a dull moment
Every and each moment..
But the uncertainty of life one can not tell

But lived every moment, not in hell.
The ambiguity in us every day of our lives
When we let unpleasantness take hold
The ugliness in our souls, their souls ambiguously

But now looking down floating those thermal winds
Gliding by whilst others hurriedly,  go by
Their feelings were hidden, deeply within
As their hearts cries their eyes shedding tears in sorrow

As they go by through life uncertaintly
Achieving the heights, the illusion in our minds
Climbing that mountain of life obsessively
But there they go that grin in they're eyes 

 Floating those thermal winds, In the extremities oh my mind
Swooping down climbing high
Way above the clouds above my Skies so blue
Dancing dancing in the winds
