I have walked the earth as if in a dream,

Watering my soul at a forgotten stream,

Watching the memories upon the water gleam,

Wanting to believe that ancient myths are true,

That wishes did not evaporate like drops of dew,

That I could walk into the spirit world and somehow find you.

 

I have sat in my room as if in a dream,

And watched your face on the t.v. screen,

And immersed myself in every passing scene,

And imagined that all was just as before,

Moments frozen in time I will always adore,

Desperate memories too poignant to ever ignore.

 

Life is but a dream, they say,

And today

I wish it were true;

I could drift through the months of March April May,

And at the end I could still smile at you.
