The Dream

Written by matt, Inspired by catie

Tranquility holds this place
In the palm of her hand
If sadness isn’t derived from haste,
Well, I’ll be damned
Let’s watch the stars.
Let’s stare beauty in the face.
We’ll bend back these iron bars
Cut through ropes and chains
The moon contrasts with a sky of jet black
Littered with splinters of light
A blazing, pale, blue crescent
Burning like fire
The crickets sing in harmonic choir
More beautiful is she who sits beside me in this place
Than the lovliest of a mid-summer night’s dream
For her I breathe. . . .
My whispered promise
“I’ll never leave”
“I’ll always be here”
Behind her loving eyes
She has nothing to fear
We’ll never die
The moon is the only thing
Between us and the stars
That shine in the distance
Like glowing memories
Just listen to my heart strings play
A lovely melody to make things right
Our lips embrace like long forgotten friends
Once lost, now found by this
Wonderful. . . .
Memorable. . . .
Night.
Fade to black over the crystal blue waters
by the black sand beach
Reflecting the midnight abound within her eyes
Drift awake with tears in the same
All splendor that came
Now gone
For this was simply just a dream
