I woke up from the best dream.
So lucid, and vivid.
Defined with every detail.
Raising from my bed, grasping for thin air.
But nothing is there.
Just the cold thin air.

Chilling to the spine, despair sets In.
Pondering and wondering where I sit.

Dreams reflect revelations of the mind.
And in mine a seductress so divine.
Clouded angel sent with blue ribbons.
Skin cloaked with the glare of sunshine.
A touch softer than a skyline cloud.
Voice sweeter than the most melodic sound.

She gently layed her hand in mine.
And said come with me my dear.
You have taken a lifetime to find.

She came from outta nowhere.
Off in the distance then straight to me.
Hand in hand we walked through.
The land if dream.
Conversations about many things.

Here stands this majestic lady so beautiful it seems.
But she stood there with no face.
Like scribbles on paper is the veil she wore.
Then I ask, why don't you reveal who you are?

She said...

It is not yet that time.
I am only a figment and ideal but a reality.
Of what's to come your way.
Your mind is a beautiful place where I wait.
To be brought to life.
I see into your soul and you into mine.
And my face will be revealed to you in time.

But until then...

Just look into these colorless eyes.
And know that I am a reality and alive.
One day your world will bring us together.
And forever we will live and die.

Then she lay her head against my chest.
To listen to the drumming of my heart.
Calm but so fast and rapid it beats.
Music to we ears she said it seems.
In this moment I am alive, one with another.
A few moments of silence.
Standing quietly.
Holding one another.
Sun illuminates the skin.
The warmth sends chills toy spine.

One last moment I slowly raise my head.
To press my lips against her head.
And all of a sudden, she falls away.
And I'm awake...

I guess that's what I was grasping for...

But I have no worries
Because what she sang in my ears.
Rings there with each breath I take.
And one day I shall find you again.
Veil of distortion unraveled.
Face revealed.
Hand in hand once again.
My dreams made a reality.
And in this moment we will be one.
Then I shall hold you and simply say.

I love you...

Until this moment comes.
I will rise with arms open wide.
Ready to keep you from falling away.
Waiting to catch you...

You tell your kid to give the dog food and water. He mishears you and asks what moonwater is, and you fashion his mistake into a poem. ;)

I tried to find you at the bottom of a bottle
Laying down on the bathroom floor
My loneliness was a rattle in the windows
You said you don't want me anymore

And you left me
Standing on a corner crying,
Feeling like a fool for trying
I don't even remember
Why I'm wasting all these tears on you
I wish I could erase our memory
'Cause you didn't give a **** about me
Oh, finally I'm through
Wasting all these tears on you
These tears on you

You ain't worth another sleepless night
And I'll do everything I gotta do to get you off my mind
'Cause what you wanted I couldn't give
What you did, boy, I'll never forget

And you left me
Standing on a corner crying
Feeling like a fool for trying
I don't even remember
Why I'm wasting all these tears on you
I wish I could erase our memory
'Cause you didn't give a **** about me
Oh, finally I'm through
Wasting all these tears on you
These tears on you

And you left me
Standing on a corner crying
Feeling like a fool for trying
I don't even remember
Why I'm wasting all these tears on you
I wish I could erase our memory
'Cause you didn't give a **** about me
Oh, finally I'm through
Wasting all these tears on you
Oh, oh, these tears on you

I tried to find you at the bottom of a bottle
Laying down on the bathroom floor

Pain
    Might lessen
         Over
              time

But
       The memories
            Never
                 Fade
