Too Caught Up with the World

Too caught up with the World...
What's our World?
Listen.

I hear the sound of water gushing down the pipe,
I hear the cranes crank at the construction site,
I hear traffic speeding on the highway,
and the old mantle clock tick-tocking away...

But in between these moments,
Listen.

There's a sound of silence,
a silence from within;
And Time stands to a still,
And you start to feel,
All is an Illusion.

Nothing else matters,
but the thumping of a heart.
That, in our World,
is the truest sound to be heard.
