# story of a man

-

let me tell you a story about a man
every night he shuts his eyes, he saw himself standing in a room, a space, an area, whatever but there is nothing but himself
and every time he’s in there, he was forced to play…

he played his memories back and forth
he played those pictures as a movie
he played those words as a sentence
he played those tunes as a song
he plays
until he realized something
sometimes he realized he made a bad choice
sometimes he realized he was having fun
sometimes he realized nothing, played just for the sake of playing

forgetting thing, remembering thing, reminding himself that he is, in fact, still alive
all seem so foggy yet so clear
all seem so far yet so close
all seem so special yet so ordinary

and when his eyes are wide open, a large sigh comes from his mouth
and once again, he walks this path of his, walk this earth, once again
And into the distance, forever it seems
