One Life At A Time

I've often wondered
on the other side what it would be like to stay
and try that theory.
Instead of the this played out life that I'm living in now.
I'll hide in thought
And drift through reverie.
And
all the people will see a different side of me.
And I'll hide again
alone

In another life.
For there are so many to choose from
on the shelf
of my mind.

There must be someone who understands me.

A life for a life.

In this game of life
there are passengers and drivers.
There are
successors and survivors.

Forever I and I.

Is one life enough?
Or have we exceeded our own resource and expectancy?
Too many of us
are hiding as time goes on.

I can't run fast enough.
I can't change fast enough.

I appeared again in another life
And called it something else.
