Flickering dreams within dreams of the past
Fleeting glimpses and flashes of deep secrets they cast
A woven silken spell so tender and benign
Neither a vision of promise nor an ominous sign
A sea of delusion as the heart’s dark refuge
An innocent, unsuspecting of impending deluge
Of the poisoned truth and the ravaged lies
The facade of bonds hiding the severed ties
Lest it succumbs, the mind hunts for grace
Shunning the tempt of an image, an ethereal face
That which ruled thoughts from the glorious helm
Now only haunts the recesses of the dark realm
The journey began to meet its infantile end
A clarity, fate from its murky depths did lend
That the days of travel would be painfully brief
And memories would bring back a souvenir of grief
All crushed, the traitorous heart dauntlessly hums
The rhythm of life until the call to relinquish comes
As it falters and breaks and languishes and burns
In an illusion of reality the world impenitently turns
Many colours the relentless angel in flesh had brought
Riddled with mortality, this tortured heart it sought
Its relentless soul, the heart will yearn and meet its demise
Hoping to meet the seeker in the plains of eternal sunrise
