Nascent, awake, newly born Have I ever been? I can't remember.
In slumber surreal, I dream a dream For the first time so real, this dream I dreamt Have I ever before dreamt? How long have I slept? How long was I asunder? This vastness of slumber.
But I recall a figure, alluring Graceful, walking away from me A silhouette, in the stillness In our closeness, she remained distant Her voice I heard her voice She called my name (And) I followed her beckon (Yet) she was elusive And escaped my grasp Evaded embrace (And) left not a trace
Cast into a life hitherto unknown Naked and cold Forlorn and old I am alone
Somewhere, she does exist Reality dawning, the fire burning She called me from sleep into life anew She is here--somewhere
