Dreamer
Stars are golden, lightens the whole body, sitting close enough to touch
Warmth of orbs radiates through the cleanest air to be breathed
Many moons in many phases different shades of epheremeal blue never too little too much
All the love, one never got the chance to have, all she needs
But only when she closes her eyes and dares to dream
Dares to be strong instead of weak
Closing her eyes to the nightmare it seems
To wake up to reality where she finds the voice to speak
But even some nights things turn for the worst
And when her nightmares penetrate her paradise
You can never imagine the pain she feels, how much it hurts
Almost impossible to quietly bare behind faded eyes
Her flower wilting under Her Mother's care
Petals falling on an ever steady beat after each death
Any place is better, 'here' is most definitely better than there
Cold fingers wrap around her neck knock her loose a couple steps
She lays hand on unchecked heart
Wishing after many dreamless nights where she barely slept
She could feel once again a part
A part of heaven a part of someplace peaceful
But she knows never again will she feel the excitement and glory of what was
Because all truths can be deceitful
And ending is all real dreams do but a nightmare never does
