Dreams

Many poets crossed my way

with words which have 

wretched my heart for long.

But no one sang my song.

till one day, my song came along.

I don't know who,

I don't know why and

what those words had in them.

They pulled a chord so deep within.

My song sang to me from seas faraway.

It told me stories of love and hope.

It took me by the hand and into a fairyland.

I drifted with its currents.

and here I am, as if in a strange world.

A world that I hardly know.

My song brought me here, but it is gone now.

some wind carried it away.

oh so cold! This foreign land.

and so cold so cold my hands

As winter sets on my dreams.

I pray my song flies back to me,

takes away the grayness and

takes away the loneliness and takes me back

Back to the fairyland where I was.
