Simplicity

in a moment of uncertainty
I paused beneath the mysterious mists
of a opalescent moon
pondering whether or not
it was wrong to love you
as the last dream I dreamt of us
fell misunderstood somewhere
between "one more kiss goodnight"
and a bowl of bing cherries
that were much too ripe

night began to ache aloud
and my hope began to tweak
as guilt rushed my veins
like an icy December rain
and the thought that this
could be my punishment
for ever daring to dream
the dream of us
was taking over my mind

when a shooting star blazed
a trail of magic and beauty
just above my madness
and I remembered just what
real dreams were made of
and I remembered that
every whisper that
rides that tail of silver shimmer
seeking out the one heart
that will hear these words and
understand what they mean
has a chance to love within hope

and I remembered I was that girl
the one that dreamt
of stardusted destinies
dangling from sequence skies
and in the beauty
of moon swept midnights
that bring sleeping dreams to life
and in the taste of a
salty breeze sunrise that proves
the best things in life are indeed free
and in the magic that lingers dancing
even beneath the light of day
and in the truth of a love
that even time can't fade

and then I remembered you
and I knew right or wrong
I loved you and you loved me
and the rest was just details
confusing the simplicity of us
