Round, like a

in a spiral,

like a

within a

Never ending or beginning

on an ever-spinning

Like a snowball down a

or a carnival

Like a carousel that's turning,

running

around the

Like a

whose hands are sweeping

past the minutes of its

And the world is like an

silently in space

Like the

that you find

in the

of your mind

Like a

that you follow

to a

of its own

Down a hollow to a

where the sun has never shone

Like a

that keeps revolving

in a half-forgotten dream

Or the ripples from a

someone tosses in a

Like a

whose hands are sweeping

past the minutes of its

And the world is like an

silently in space

Like the

that you find

in the

of your mind

that jingle in your pocket,

words that jangle in your head

Why did

go so quickly?

Was it something that you said?

walk along a

and leave their footprints in the

Is the sound of distant

just the fingers of your

in a hallway

or the fragment of a song

Half-remembered names and

but to whom do they belong?

When you knew that it was over

you were suddenly aware

That the

were turning

to the colour of her

A circle in a

a

within a

Never ending or beginning

on an ever-spinning

As the images unwind

like the

that you find

In the

of your mind.
