As I shut my eyes and leisurely begin to drift
My soul slips silently from a broken reality
Familiar voices heard faintly in the distance
The security of them wilting into a memory
Innocent heart endlessly yearning to explore
Fall upon that love which was once so deep
Now numbed to this once tender emotion
The imprints visible with each slight glance
A smile which once radiated now disappeared
Sparkling eyes danced with joy now lifeless
A spirited heart filled with bliss now hopeless
Gentle soul now scarred by a beautiful love lost
Slipping away are my once pleasant fantasies
No longer in my grasp are my glowing wishes
My heart now an abyss filled with faint dreams
No longer shining but gradually disappearing
As a hopeful tear slides gently down my cheek
I begin to reminisce about your captivating love
A dim smile slowly appears on my chapped lips
But just as fast as it becomes known to my face
Now is permanently replaced with a fixed frown
With hope still evident in my spirit and my being
I will naturally wait for your pleasant love once again
You are the passionate fire that burns deep within me
Though now the idyllic flame is faint and weakening
My optimism and endless desire stimulates its blaze
As my spirit attempts to slip into lost dreams
A voice whispers gently in my longing ears
"Let me be your wings & baby you can fly"
