I Keep Dreaming
I dream but soon feel
You are the cold water to my face
The match near my toes
The free fall that woke me up
I woke up
Upright and down turned
I take frequent peeks at the nightmare I waited in
I fell
And fell
But only fell in love
The love
This love
Only love
Is what held me in the flames
Of burning passion I ignited and you fed
I was doomed from the start
The split second of the fraction of the exact moment our eyes met
In a second
I saw you were beautifully caring, peculiarly fun, awkwardly enchanting
The second after
I knew you were one in immeasurable amount of any like you
And the second after
I was trapped by silent thought "she is the one"
That echoed as slow as the seconds that passed by
It only took three seconds
Longer than blink
But faster than a greet
It was Hell at first sight
So know this..
This is not a poem
This is a cry for help
Save me from my pain
Save me from my thoughts
Save me from the love
Or is this life it's self I live all just a Nightmare to?
