A Forbidden Dream

Forever paradise hath haunted I
My soul yearning for the truth
My life hath slowly floated by
The world spinning in its lonely booth

It all began that night ago
A dream so lovely to belong to thee
A life filled with joy none will know
Songs play along with out a single fee

Death is not a factor in my slumber heart
Pain and worry only known for real
Happiness over shadows falling part
Nothing known from my false feel

Since this moment, my life hath been the mind
A future UN for certain, for I and all mankind
