Dream Lover

homeward bound

Searching through my dreams at night, all eyes are on me-

not a soul in sight, hiding indefinitely.

The moon is far away, but moves the seven seas,

like my heart pulls your love to grow up through my feet.

The chiming of the third hour sets night spirits free,

and I feel you there in a world past where eyes see.

Although I sense heaviness in strangers I meet,

your whispers speak, looming inside of me.

And then the sun rises,

and you’re gone.

And the sun rises,

and rises,

and rises.

And so I seek to dream in daylight, dawn breaking,

in slow rising and falling, imaginary;

invisible, delightful, stagnant, and breathing,

my most precious memories are calling to me.

And the moon rises,

and you're gone.

and the moon rises,

and rises,

and rises.
