*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.
