An emotional poem I wrote, after waking from a vivid dream.
Can you feel the weight falling off
Too much to think of passing on,
and as we fall out of love again,
our dreams all end

Today to see you,
You run myself dry,
Remind me, Remind me,
Remind me, Remind me,
what I could have been,
and what I should have seen

We made you, you broke me

In the morning light I see you,
It's sad those times escape me,
Remind to mock me,
I am slowly done,
Sleep to dream to wake to scream,
Sidewalks haunt me,
With the words you flaunt,

Gone through and gone on
We evolved once,
A sad memory eclipsed your halo,
Around that halo,
Hangs my heart

You revolved around me,
A mute swan with hands drawn,
I can't leave, I can't wait,
A place to place the dream you died
A place to dream the place we lied

So are we murderers,
Love gliding by so slight
Laughing when it's right,
with extra time when it was over,
I felt the ground move closer,

I wish I could dream underwater,
Could see on the both sides of the shore,
By the way, Oh,
You'll be wishing so fast
I'd tried to greet you,
But I slammed the door

Oh, now, I can't lose this steam,
too crowded to sleep this dream,
And wherever I go,
Shadows of you will flow,

When you see the light
When those feet carry you to walk
and you think of all you've got
Moments of moments for you to steal
Play this way that you know how to feel,
and I can pretend those dreams of mine are real,
and you're not out of sight

So seal your wide eyes,
don't feel your fading cries,
You know something's happened,
"Sorrow ate me, I'm not me anymore"
You can't keep me forever in store,
So lay me down right,
as you fade to white,
Think of what we've seen,
And what's left to dream
