Dreamer’s drift
September and 23 December 2010
∞
Dreamers will always dream
Drifters would rather drift
So again now it would seem
That a mind often goes adrift
∞
Smoke blows all hurt away
It never goes or traces back
It would keep itself so grey
Rather than return to black
∞
Of love that still fading trace
Strewn through a blue sky
Is not of her beautiful face
It’s of her sad and weak sigh
∞
Clouds could be so lily white
Clouds could be night black
With a silvery forgiving light
I could now cut you some slack
∞
Peace is no part of life’s bliss
Perched on your lonesome rock
You’d rather that display miss
To go following some dainty frock
∞
Observing is cold and feels not
Being casual is of feeling wane
No love in you but mere thought
As your stiff aching neck you crane
∞
And as for now being so serene
It is nothing else but a sad way
To allow for the dark blue spleen
your waning dying heart to decay
∞
Drift not from my side so far away
O dreamer hark, please don’t drift
I beg you on my knees now to stay
But you’ve left me, off you go swift
∞
To have and yearn so much to keep
The faults that are seething within us
Is just a proof of how we finally reap
Our dark soul’s unkindly little fuss
∞
Yes when I think it, the true miracle
Is not what we in our bosoms hide
But it is about when at the pinnacle
How us and our souls right we guide
∞
Surviving is a mere matter of instinct
I prefer living as a human being whole
I am no sad, hunted beast soon extinct
I live not and will never cower in a hole
∞
Surely enough within us so deep inside
Is where as dream and truth it often lies
Riding as dreamers lone sorrow astride
Even all eternity for us from within it flies
