This dream

had I known I would have enjoyed it more

I might have told myself to be happy more

than

this dream

I live in visions of shimmering lights and reflective streamers blowing in the breeze

The shadows hold tight to my soul

my spirit struggles and my will shattered by time

numb and lifeless I wander the empty streets of the city of my mind

starring yet blind screaming in greatest pain yet silent

weeping the complete surrender without anyone to turn my sword over to

There is such beauty just to jeer

my heart breaks in shame chastising inaction is the blame

I need to renew the reason for my quest to drink from the fountain of hope

to float in the clouds of wonder realize the reflection of self in the mirror of assurance

I must close my eyes to the noise clamoring for my attention

drown myself in the sea of love and die to this mare reborn to the reality of

this dream.
