Dreaming
By Spoot-Maker
Dreaming...
You're better off alone
Dreaming...
You took a breath and now its gone
Laid back restlessly, eyes wide
The cold air stings your naked lenses
Warm vapour escapes your lips
Melting into the open air
Wisps that float away like smoke
Too cold to move
Too cold to speak
Yet there is nobody there
No body to squeeze too hard
No soul to share
Just the dancing shadows
Cast off by the moonlight
Empty, fleeting and silent
Dancers partnered with your crystal breath
Dreaming...
You're better off alone
Dreaming...
You took a breath and now its gone
The hours creep up slowly
Lines blur in your vision
And the blurs claw into your reality
Are you there? Is it all real?
Red lines burn into your vision, 4am
Still no sleep, still no rest
Still no peace
You need an anchor
Something to tie you to the world
A center for the galaxy
To hold on tight, near breaking point
But that would solve nothing
A patchwork solution, a band aid
That drags your anchor down
Dreaming...
You're better off alone
