Walking through the chapters of my mindSlaying all my dragonsAttacking all my daemonsLifting up my swordTearing up past nightmaresWorking towards where you lieDeep in your dreamsGoing past the jokers and the losersForgetting past storiesUntil our story is scrolled outIn front of my feetA story of true love, of loss,Laughter and friendshipA story of passion and rekindled love A tale of finding something trueIn a land so false, Dancing in a masquerade ballPlastic smilesAnd empty eyesAnd then there were youSomething differentCaptivating me with your words and smileFalling into your brown eyesDown the rabbit hole,There’s no need for any more disguisesI’m standing here bareMy past and feelings lay out at my feetYou open your eyesCover me in your armsSafe and secureFrom the thorns of the pastUntil there’s nothing moreThan just us.
Floating along in a gentle breathTaken along the earths quiet surfacePast the rivers and their curving courseOver hills and mountainsPast the watchful eagle with it’s attentive eye Over the cities and the towns with their vibrant lifeGlowing with their lights under this dusk summers nightPassing its fumes into the skyAlong it you floatIn your graceful wayPast the big smokeTowards the coast you approachOver the suburbs and their fenced gardensChildren jumping with glee on a trampolineAs I stand and watch a quiet crow stalk The ground for its next chick’s mealIt is here you decide to gently fallFloating down to my feetFalling from the heavensA little white featherSent from the clouds above.
Is all we see a dream within a dream
What is reality as I stand beneath the tree
The sky no longer blue but a heavy violet
Letting go of day, taking the world into night.
Casting shadows from this woody branch
Long and tall almost human like,
Wooden fingers grasping towards the days edge
As they get shorter, slowly melting into the darkness
Forgoing their life, until the break of day
Where once again those dark silhouettes
Will emerge from their slumber,
To dance and pass the day away
