Whispers of the entranced
With words I fatally romanced
Dreams I wove became scars
As I dared you to look to the stars
Never could I have fathomed
The darkness imagined
In the woods I chased the beams of a sullen moon
Finding only the darkness of your gloom
Looking to your eyes—Finally understanding why
Knowing now your dreams flew away upon a sunset precipice
A kiss from me couldn’t fix, this
Agnostic - still I prayed for you, if only to rewind time
Back to a better place where we could…Find
Where the forest meets the stars
Where the cool winds and aroma of pine dance with the stars, divine
Dreams of fates never to be
…All that is left of you and me…
Whispering as I stand alone upon the precipice of reality, cruel
These are the thoughts of a fractured fool
Shattered by the dreams siphoned away
A somber song in my mind-- screams
All I have left are memories of once upon a dream
