Mad

Are You mad?
Mad enough to dream far beyond
Beyond what you have and need
To reach for the unreachable day

Do you dream in your safe cocoon
The "closet dreamer" in the unmoving world
Dream of sins, and pains and gains
To wake up in a sane world

Oh I wish for madness
For dreams insane
Of flying without wings
And singing in the rain

But I am so sane , so maddeningly sane
I dream of tulips, blue skies and gains
In my little closet the madness stays
My personal madness, my little gains

I even think of giving them away
My little closet full of dreams
But they are my sins, pains and full of gain
Mine mine, all mine and so maddeningly sane.
