Possibilities

I dreamed of you

In the quiet stillness of my heart

That secret part

Deep within slumbering, waiting

I dreamed of you.

Secret even to myself, i told no one else

Hope like a precious jewel

I dreamed of you.

Never daring to believe it could be this way

The me that i had hidden away

High in a tower away from the fray...

I dreamed of you,

Till i saw your face, eyes a blaze

Like a moth to a flame, whispered your name

I dreamed of you.

Of possibilities and what could bes, hope springing

Knowing the danger brimming

I opened my heart to you.

Despite my hesitation, perspiration, clutched in desperation,

This untarnished piece of me pulled from the debris...

I gave it to you.

Exchanged it for a loan 

On your promises to own,

The warmth of your embrace,

The peace wrapped in that space,

All i do is dream of you

Only to wake at last

Like smoke in my hands.
