Aloft a bay and swift to wonder, With thoughts to swirl a mind in which refute its sunder; As sentiments of contemplation adjoin their trail, Sanctions of mind with no clear avail - In which taunt a certain truth, Ample with results ensured by fail; For truth-value was not of concern, As living these dreams were impossible to discern - With a relative validity they sat behind, Distorted of image and left undefined. Truth is, one might ever know, Perhaps it is attachment or a wilting care; Perhaps it is an unrequited or envisioned affair; Perhaps the past person in which offer solace; Or perhaps a valueless teem of needless embolus - To convey to mind that it is but nothing, Nothing alas, no more than something. And yet i sit, dreaming dreams of the past. Dreaming of you, standing here steadfast. These thoughts to ponder as they float along, Conjure themselves together and play an endless song; Which teethe and breathe with heartfelt rhythm. It gripes at my mind, and yet i still go with 'em. In eerie desire of a defined remedy; That goes without saying an undefined extremity. So last I speak, From thought to thought, As this sheltered mind is to leak. Hereby night's gleaning ember - Heart beating with thoughts as far as I remember, Our peak in history at status of friend, Mutuality clear, no ties to amend. Nothing more and nothing less. So why is it I dream of you? I must profess. Yes it is true, yes indeed I do. Explicit visions of something more - Something that we've never even considered to open a door. And here at it I confess, That of attraction in an altered fictitious state of mind; Yet here I am, Continuing to look behind, Here in this reality, with my eyes distinctly open, Reliving these dreams dreamt in the past, With deeper connections - Connections that realistically never sought chance to last. They never even existed with such say, So why in my sleep I See You This Way?

Dreaming Dreams of Past Dreams
Aloft a bay and swift to wonder, With thoughts to swirl a mind in which refute its sunder; As sentiments of contemplation adjoin their trail, Sanctions of mind with no clear avail - In which taunt a certain truth, Ample with results ensured by fail; For truth-value was not of concern, As living these dreams were impossible to discern - With a relative validity they sat behind, Distorted of image and left undefined. Truth is, one might ever know, Perhaps it is attachment or a wilting care; Perhaps it is an unrequited or envisioned affair; Perhaps the past person in which offer solace; Or perhaps a valueless teem of needless embolus - To convey to mind that it is but nothing, Nothing alas, no more than something. And yet i sit, dreaming dreams of the past. Dreaming of you, standing here steadfast. These thoughts to ponder as they float along, Conjure themselves together and play an endless song; Which teethe and breathe with heartfelt rhythm. It gripes at my mind, and yet i still go with 'em. In eerie desire of a defined remedy; That goes without saying an undefined extremity. So last I speak, From thought to thought, As this sheltered mind is to leak. Hereby night's gleaning ember - Heart beating with thoughts as far as I remember, Our peak in history at status of friend, Mutuality clear, no ties to amend. Nothing more and nothing less. So why is it I dream of you? I must profess. Yes it is true, yes indeed I do. Explicit visions of something more - Something that we've never even considered to open a door. And here at it I confess, That of attraction in an altered fictitious state of mind; Yet here I am, Continuing to look behind, Here in this reality, with my eyes distinctly open, Reliving these dreams dreamt in the past, With deeper connections - Connections that realistically never sought chance to last. They never even existed with such say, So why in my sleep I See You This Way?
I've been dreaming of a past close friend, one that I've since moved far away from. And yet I dream of something more. And I've been asking myself why? For what reason? I had never seen her that way before. So why in my dreams I see her this way now? Dreams truly are something to ponder.
