Inside my Dreams

my dear,

i could tell you stories
of the places i have been
and i could show you memories
of the souls i have seen

darling,
just imagine

mountain tops
that pierce grey clouds
heavy with coming rain
an alle water droplets
pattering on your hair
cascading down your face

oh darling,
just imagine

trees lining a river bed,
the fluttering of birds
and on the ground,
foxes, romping through green ferns

my love,

can you not picture
concrete and steel towers
who's lights brighten up
the midnight sky

I can see it
in the distance
as trillions of stars
shimmer, reflecting in my eyes

My dear,

I could tell you stories
sharing experiences with you
I could speak of them with such imagery
that you'll be able to live them too

oh, and I've been so many places,
seen so many things
but there's only stories I have
to tell, it seems

because I've only ever traveled
when I'm inside my dreams
