Wood panels stood
Against my Dream Room walls,
Nightmares locked downstairs.
That was the happiest we've ever been.

But there's no moon glow anymore.
It's daylight, Dream Room.
Stay behind.

In space I've vanished,
But my spirit stays.
Lonely, I linger in your worn out walls.
That day light came and took you away.
Mourn the melted sweets,
Now ghosts in your halls.

Promise of a better time,
I trusted to be mine.
Evaporated into mold,
To think I lost the fight.
Far better to have loved,
But not all of the time.
It's day light Dream Room,
Forget the night.

Lions love me.
Wait patiently behind every door I close,
Out of faith, that I will open it.
Lions trust me.
I am your gauge of right and wrong
I am the machine in your mind.

In every thought of everyday
Hum my sound,
Smile voice on play.
Spend every dime waiting,  
For me to arrive.
Prove your impressive love,
Dedicated all mine.

Lion as well, I love you too.
Someday when you have to go
I will let you know,
How much You've been for me.
Always underneath,
A cushion to cradle me.

The sweet embrace of stability
Warmly and gently wrapped
His arms around me
Laid me down,
Breathed upon my eyelids.
I can't wait to absorb
His strong face again
Quiet my mind,
Soak him in
And savor, every delicious drop.

I know a girl, A heart.
A warm Autumn afternoon.
Sweet like honey
And glows like the moon.
Lift me up, Spin me around.
She makes me think in pictures,
In burgundy cream and brown.
Perfect like a baby doll
Original like a stone wall
Close up around my thoughts,
And let yourself echo.
More beautiful in real life than in dreams,
My teddy bear when I was five
My best friend all my life.

I remember July
Hot morning watering foxgloves
Waking up to dreams,
Falling asleep to dreams.
I remember July.
Envied or loved, by all who laid eyes.
I'll always remember July.

But now misty marshy October
Has taken over,
Watering the foxgloves for me.
But their colors no longer gleam,
In the rain.

In the rain,
I'll always remember July.
Where everyday was a dream,
For a short sweet while
July, July, July.

First page of the next chapter
Starts with a sunrise to myself
Glowing orange and pink and gold.
Moving through time, morphed into a daydream.
Sun tan kisses,
Long awaited wavy wishes.

Summers dawning just in time
And waiting on the other side,
Were warm, brown blooms 
Found for me to float upon.

Lake water landing, firm and easy.
Foxglove freedom, grew over all the grey.
Worries wilted, giving way
To liberated light.

Star gazer eyes that taste tomorrow,
Hold the hand of your marigold mermaid.
Learn to love her field wood freedom
And her lavender laugh.

Little lily touches
Inconsistent, yet assured,
Shoot their sparks
Up to all the spiraling stars.
The colors of the cosmos sunset overflow,
And bleed their glitter into tomorrow's morning.

Goodbye Strawberry Fields,
You were never even real.
Only an over ripened idea.
Velvet curves and craters
Of the dark blue depths
I only wish I knew you,
Never existed to be picked.
I only wish I knew you well,
Like other people do.
Seeds and leaves of hopes and dreams
Goodbye Strawberry Fields,
You were never even real.
