I dreamed of you
in another life
My thoughts were sharper
than a sharpened knife
I closed my eyes
to be fully blind
Yet my love for you
stayed on my half-empty mind
I wished you were
not my undivided wish
For my hopes were quicker
than the fastest fish
I opened my eyes,
thought you were gone
Yet my beating heart
could never stand
the testimony of 'none'
I ignored you
in the shoulders of reality
My visions were wilder
than wildest insanity
I turned around,
hoped you died
Yet my soul only belonged
to your soulful side
I left you in the dungeons
of the unshackled past
My imagination was stronger
and more unleashed at last!
I escaped, locked you away
Yet my lips couldn't wait
for your lips to say
I imprisoned you in the dreary
woods of nostalgia
My expectations were brighter
than heightened sepia
I hid, heard you scream
Yet my hands dreamed
to reach you in another dream
I drowned you in vain
in the marshlands of impossibility
My senses were clearer
than the clearness of clarity
I denied, forgot the murder
Yet my mind was guilty
in the fortress of forever!
