When the dust has settled: and it’s twilight
When the grass has grown: and the cattle have grazed
When the heart has leapt: has left its place
When you are no more: no more the same
When the day that dawns: shines in your face
When the time of day: is just the time of day
When night falls: and the day doesn’t break
When someone calls: shouts out in empty space
When ‘I’ devours: that comes its way
When darkness grows inside and darkness prevails
When the lights shine: that darkness hates
When flowers bloom: where no one cares
When mountains separate which valleys within
Valleys within: abysmal space
Circles of gloom: in tortuous waves

‘When the time of day: is just the time of day’
This is my favorite line. It says so much.
