i walk a path
a golden path,
lined with pink petals of light
i dance en pointe,
i dance on point
to the call of the birds in the sky
and the light is gold,
the light is gold
and you’re holding my hand like a dream
and the clouds are sighing,
the breeze is sighing
and my ears are ringing with pleas
to never leave me,
please never leave me
and always stay by my side
but the light is leaking,
and the light is leaving
and the sun is closing its eyes
and you’re just a shadow of a dream i once had,
a dream i once had in the night
of love at first sight,
and then loss at last sight
and a flash of light in between
