Efference - Asira

She lies here endlessly

Held in dreamless waking sleep

Here, further beyond

Where waves stand still

Like light I cannot hold

Silently trapped by impulse latency

Adrift on waves unfeeling

Preserved in air I’ll never see

Wander far from the real

Where water sleeps, like light I cannot feel

I’m here, waiting behind these quiet eyes

Efference still holds me

Don’t go

I’m here, just behind the glass

If I could, if I knew how, I would join you

Wander far from the real

Where water sleeps, like light I cannot feel

I’m here, waiting behind these quiet eyes

Efference still holds me

Alive

The deafening azure breaks over me

A current of colour dyes my sea

Awash in vibrant lucidity
