Free Cee Eyes Cried Awake
EYES CRIED AWAKE
I had a dream that I met a lady who I once upon a night had dreamed of
Back when I still dreamed of landing in love
In the dream I was me and she was the she who knew I was wantonly in love with she
And likewise she with me
At dream’s begin ‘twas magic meant
With sundry and sultry signals sent
Voluptuous vitality vexed me well
And oh my heart so beat to swell
In the dream there were gifts she gave with grace and glee aglow
And all the secrets sensed by she I no longer had need to stow
Months and years passed by so fast
And yet her beauty still left I so quite aghast
But sometimes the sweetest wine, by time, is aged too long and sour turns the grape
While time by torment is meant to do more than rape
And fades the fascination
When darkens the delight of sensual satisfaction
And dead is all the wonder delight once came to deem
And I, in an encapsulating bed, voice to thank an angel that it was but a dream
