Wake of a Dream

Apr 06, 2006 03:02

i saw you again last night
eyes closed, your image burned itself into my mind
sadly these meetings have become a dread to me
glimpses of a time when all was right
and i was happy... so happy.

not so long ago i saw you
face to face
the hope for this world
a beacon of light for a lost soul like me
but time can be a cruel mistress
and this broken heart has never mended.

i dreamt of you again last night
and for the briefest of moments
my scarred frozen heart glowed once more
familiar feelings long forgotten
drew me back to that place
where you were here, and i was fine

when i awoke
i found you gone as quickly as you had come
leaving only a beast in your place
the very same - so long ago i had caged
behind those walls of flesh
slowly clawing its way out
i should have known it would happen

and i cursed the day for bringing me here.
