pieces of a dream

i walked the darkness all alone
guilt stricken and on my own
left without money and lost my home
just another beggar on the roam

spent my fortune pretending to be rich
trying to land the tip that i could never reach
and so i lost everything that i held dear
thrown away like a bottled beer

the pangs of regret bite my ear
i thought that it was nothing to be feared
now i lay alone the side of an empty road
picking up the pieces of my shattered dreams
like a puzzle only this time there are hundreds on the floor
though, i don’t have the time to scour

i should have listened to what they’ve said
something told me, only the truth was in their head
now that i am filled with shame
going back would never ever be the same

they tried to stop me but i wouldn’t let them
they tried to tell me but i wouldn’t even listen
now that it all came back to me
their words would have set me free

now the road is at it’s end
nothing there but an empty field, it’s barren
nothing more that i can do, to change
everything is out of range
on the floor i tried to pick up the pieces of my shattered dreams

good night lovely moonlight

good night, sleep tight.
may the angel up at the heavens
watch over you as you sleep in deep slumber,
with the moon as you night lamp
and the stars as your guide,
may dream, dreams fit royally
with the tarots in the sky.
may you meet the mad hatter
and the white rabbit having tea,
the chesire cat up on a tree,
the jabberwock on the ceiling
and queen of hearts right after her meeting,
may the dragon’s fire burn ever bright,
as the pegasus lulls you to sleep this night.
as the pixies shower you with powder,
and the faeries light the way to the higher power.
before the sun rises at the horizon,
and the moon fades before the clouds of crimson.
may you have dreamt a journey,
where none has ventured for a century…

Dreaming Dreams With Dreamers Me and You

*the night and fleeting dreams tango.
*whisper to me your Caribbean hopes.
*We’ll cruise the rooftops in twigs
*and twines and sing “i n s o m nia”

as the night falls deeper,
and the wind grows stronger.
hold my hand as the journey goes further.
into the depths of bottomless fathoms,
where dreams and reality meet at the shallows.

*i will suppress tiny fears and let go of giggles.
*we’ll form circles and blow slumber bubbles.
*and when the downpour can’t be stopped, we won’t mind.
*we’ll run mad and leave the lonely world behind.

watch fireflies dance as the owls sing songs that makes you prance,
free yourself from the darkness that surounds your heart and let you soul fly free.
as free as as angels with feathered wings can be.
take my hand and join me, the cliffs, cerulean oceans oversee.
neath that old shady tree.

*if this is a dream of utopia, let me sleep in lengthy days.
*taste the salt on my nape and take me away.
*to that place where gravity does not breathe,
*here we can float and own fins
*and we can let our hearts fall down to clumsy sins.

leave reality behind, and forget justice blind.
travel where the laws no longer apply,
where dragons freely fly.
here, none dare dictate, start our lives anew, clean slate.
together we’ll soar, our days will forever, never be bore

*we’ll take last trips and watch the day strips.
*we’ll lay on misted lawns and write love letters on our palms
*until the swirl of the dawn.
*and if it’s time to move backwards and bid adieu,
*sob no more for in your daydreams, i’ll return to you.

i’ll see you lullabies, as you lay on my lap.
sweet tender words, love as it’s gift wrap.
under the tree, overlooking the sea.
with the birds chirping happily, eagles flying free.
