Can Dreams Come True?

 

 

Can Dreams Come True?

 

and in the time it takes
for me to ink these words to paper
another grain falls burying you deeper
within the mound of my time
reflection and regret
are wicked Mistresses indeed
when once upon a starstrewn midnight
you were here
inside my moments
inside my heart


pondering yesterdays
only takes me to that place
I don't want to be
lost in feel
but yet numb
blind to the truth of things
refusing to accept what is
even when knowing
it always will be


but then that is what constructs
the Soul of a Dreamer
the magic that shapes
a shooting star
into a spark of hope
believing in the impossible
even when the possible
can be and is the only sanity


knowing somewhere
between a moonless night
and a crimson dawn
there echoes a
whispered dream
that escaped my lips long ago
reciting my path in this life
whether it be in victory or defeat
I can but follow


I am not in control
my heart refuses to let me
let it go
and my soul
my ill-divining soul
protests my truths
etching my dreams
forever in my eyes


perhaps I am just a jester
another fool for love
frozen eternally with you
in a perfect moment
that is long since been buried


or maybe my life, my path
my hopes and dreams
are the only true sanity
I will ever find in this life
and maybe just maybe
believing in the impossible
will be my absolute truth
my savior and my salvation
