Notion of a Memory

Notion of a Memory



i wish i could explain
these crazy thoughts i have
in the depths of myself
we find ourselves again

it pulls me from my shallow sleep
it pushes me so far away
and just the notion of a memory
can make my heart swell, and burst

you are my brightest light
you are my darkest night
you are my sweetest dream
you are my worst nightmare

when i look into the future
and see the the things that could go right
and feel the things that could go wrong
and know that i won't see of feel it

but if i find my foresight false
and once again gaze into your eyes
it's hard to say just what i'll do
what forms of joy will erupt from me.
