Dreaming, maybe living?

Life is like a cycle

like a circle

somewhere we die and

somewhere we grow

again

every day a new day is

different and with us

renewed

it is never the same

it is cyclical

reincarnation

every day

we new in the old world

live from beginning

to end

and then all over again

in a circle into the vortex of the world

after a dream that is over

into a new dream with

open eyes.
