A Dream

A rose hard as stone,

Weeps and wilts

like falling snow,

It tilts,

Facing a moonlit dawn,

As I lay in the ghostly place

waiting, for that nightly yawn

I see only in my dreams,

Life becomes only, but a mere thought,

Savaging within the depths of the seas

awaiting, to be fought,

and brought back, to the beginning,

When all, but the heartless, began singing
