When in history we find, ceaseless aches of wanting Even sleep cannot smother fear coupled with pain The walls tighten, their pictures almost taunting A tyrannical storm threatening to spit rain Dreams bring images, some that linger with the morning As light splinters through the cracks in the blinds These dreams are lost, and with them the warning A caution of things that lie ahead, slithering as it winds A world waiting in disguise, a shadow clinging to the ground Anticipating blending with the night, waiting for the day to pass Tiptoeing over beams of starlight, dancing without sound The dream flashes, as she lies smiling in the grass A wild mix of wanton innocence in her eyes Nothing is more powerful than this moment in time
