A Place I'll Show You in My Dreams

Shadows lie across the moon lit

Silver dust that shapes our dreams

And darkness moves like waterfalls,

Making nothing what it seems,

 

The sparkle in my eye like diamonds

Or light on water, black and white,

Beauty unveiled delicately,

I'm moved to flight, maybe I might.

 

This is a teardrop world

Shed from an eye that can behold

Beauty before it's born, imagination

Before it rustles gentle wings and they unfold.

 

A dome of sky is within reach,

Dark space and twinkling stars,

Horizons so close I cannot see them

Before the glassy planet shards.

 

This is the place behind my eyes,

My afterworld, my peace,

This is the place I've not yet shown you,

Perhaps I will, just in my dreams...
