I Craved a Dream

I craved a dream and you were there My life a blur you did not care Forgot your pain, in my defense Your reasoning did not make sense At the ceiling I lay and stare. Yes, many times life isn’t fair For you, my love, showed much despair You died from pains desired expense I craved a dream The fear you craved beyond repair Nothing to your soul does compare Now angel dust you do dispense Love’s pain and sorrow does condense Sister connection in the air I craved a dream Rondeau Rhyme Scheme: AABBA-AABC-AABBAC Eight Syllables in each line except the 4th line in second stanza and the last line in the third stanza. They have four syllables and is the repeated refrain
