A Dream

I wish I could live
inside that happiest
I ever felt in a dream
silver coin of the luckiest.

Walking arm in arm together,
Over a bridge, two lands severed,
Your sweet voice graced clear skies
why couldn't I just eternity lay,

Valium brought us together,
but the head is ever hazier
than a skin growth noticed
without care or respite

Mountain air holier than the doves
An early breeze freezes from above
chills the wings of those bird that chirps
strings the emotions of the heart beating harp

One day the branches breaks away
as the flowers are stomped on,
and the silvery glint becomes stray
As a father has shame for his eldest son

Trees rattle but not from a freeze
as a guilt lays down upon the stare,
and the silent ghosts will believe
that never life was meant to be fair

Dominos do not fall always in formation
and even a sociopath realizes compassion
Sticks & twigs did always strike my face,
of a 9 year old wishing love to embrace.

One day this world will be washed away.
