Memories of Reveries

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!
