"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." - Oscar Wilde


Numbers, letters, people and space

This is the forgotten land

Quite a somber place


Lines of thoughts flicker around us

Just out of reach of the mind

Our world sees no bounds

But it’s near impossible to find


You want to know why you’re here?

Well, that’s quite unfortunate

Now listen closely

And let me explain loud and clear


You have just reached the forgotten land

A world under the subconscious’ command

Forgotten and lost, that’s where your soul lies

After countless cries, here you may arise

 

You’ll be here for eternity

Living never-ending days

In the land of the forgotten

This is where you’ll stay


Wait, what’s that?

Why are you flickering?

I sense someone remembers

Your days aren’t over, I suppose


Now have I nice exit

But remember this place

Because sooner or later

You’ll be stuck here, below
