Talk to me

in my dreams

I see you there

and I cannot speak

true predictions

your apparition

appears to me

as something just

out of my reach

beckons me

out of sleep

Will you ask me to dance

before I awake?

next time

before its too late?


I will see you again

if in this all

I can try, will you

be there

for I cannot be

there too soon


I can't way to be buried

in your arms, tell you

honey, hold me till I die


I have only a dream to hold onto

will you therefore hold onto me

    before I drift

    into another

    fitful sleep


Tell me I am not crazy

tell me

that you still believe in things

since I cannot anymore


Tell me there is a light in all

this grey thought

And to just keep on keeping on

and one day I will find a way

and one day I'll find myself

in a field of Joy
