Daydream

Falling, falling into light

from the darkness of the night.

What dreams may come or memories show

are for no one but him to know.

He lifts the chair before i tumble,

quietly watching as i fumble

my life away without meaning.

Now silently i'm leaving.

Goodbye, adieu, oh sweet sorrow!

Maybe we'll meet again tomorrow

for without life and love's sweet breath,

i tumble into sweet, precious death.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Wrote this a couple years ago.  The daydream was of falling down a bottomless pit in a tattered, yellow dress.
