Fly Away
Merrily snuggled up against the arms of sleep
Still waters, dark, and very deep
Dreams and thoughts crisscrossing in the recesses of my mind
Some threads of sadness, few of the happy kind
Dreams that seem real, where even touch is felt
Familiar faces seen, hands held
Memories of dark incidents that cause a scare
Foundation of a profound nightmare
Thoughts intermingle forming a heterogeneous mix
Segregation of good and bad isn't a working trick
Love and loss and other coupled feelings
Just like life and its myriad dealings
From all these thoughts I try to isolate a few
About us, about knowing you
How you went from a friend to my love true
And how change occurred from brightness to darkness's hue
Through my dreams soaring like a free flying dove
I realized it's pointless to rue over lost love
Priorities change and people go away
And I wish I could just fly away
Away to a world where exists nothing
No one to love or hold, not a single being
Here I wouldn't be happy, but would be without trepidation
And you would be away from me, and my expectations
