The Dream

The Dream

My head gently rests on the edge of her bed

I'm closing my eyes softly now preparing for the night ahead

A night full of dreams and beautiful skies

A night full of enchanted forests surrounded by fairy guides

I can feel the mind starting to take me away into another place

I can feel the rivers turning from blue to red

I can see trees moving far ahead

growing in size, and singing in the wind

While children run through the tracks attempting to sing

It feels now like I'm flying and falling through time

Witnessing the magic world that could only ever exist inside the mind

Falling through the very sea's now it's all moving so slow

I see mermaids swimming together and a part of me never wants to go

But I can hear the calling back in the bed

As the fairy tale starts to fade I can feel a sense of sadness and dread

Moving backwards into the land I once came

Back to the boring city where life and death are just a game

I'll always have the dream and the adventure inside my mind

I'll always be able to close my eyes and drift through time

Normality starts to take hold and this room feels so empty and cold
