Dreaming yet Awake

Tune of Wonder


A tune like rain whispers softly in my ear

It grasps my heart with curious fear

I sweep along the marble halls

Not knowing where it resides within these walls

It pulls me close and spins me round

Calling like a belling hound

My soul rings

My heart sings

As I lower to the ground

A hand reaches for me without a sound

Carried I am to a table round

White with lace like spider web

I am laid upon my bed

Eyelids slide slowly closed

Leaving me and my thoughts unexposed

While a tune plays softly in my head

Grasping my soul even though I am dead
