The Fear of Fantarsy

I'm afraid of my dreams

Because it doesn't keep my good spirit clean

I long for passionate and unholy affairs

But my eyes aren't strong

To withstand those devilish stares

Close encounters of the close and affectionate

Imaginative with the stroke of compassion

Feelings ignored to strike with loneliness

Destroyed hope is all there is for me to cope

Destiny maligned with no route to show

No fortune cookies to taste

No pot of gold, no rainbows

Let all the good fruit go to waste

Because the fear of fantasy

Keeps my mind from extracting

What the heart is constantly lacking

A casual sense of sensual intense

So much for self confidence

It died when my esteem

Said no to the love conference

I'm negative with the irregularities

Because I need the clout

To maintain the clarity

Moments of fear

Bring clearance to the ear

Coherence to the rear

Has strong influence on the ten senses that appear

Sight, Sound, Smell, Hear, Taste

Doubled when fantasizing

On the paths that I continue allow to go waste

Why can't things get better

I take dreams second by second, and letter by letter

Where does the fear come from?

Why does it exist?

I will never sleep

Until I completely understand that horrifying gist
