Pacing the chase

Tonight is such a quiet night
My mind stopped
My soul is at halt
I looked at the brilliant, shimmering stars
They are not moving
They are not connecting to me
I am not connected to them at all
Everything is still
I have my five senses
But my sight does not see
I hear no sound
My nose does not smell
I taste no flavours
My skin does not feel
When did the wind stop blowing
When did I stop shining
I am still walking
Still chasing
When did the bird stop flying
When did you stop glowing
You are still walking
Still pacing
Tonight is such a peaceful night
Stop...
Chase...
Halt...
Pace...
It is a night
