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
