The Lost Bell

The lost bell
That never would make a sound
Hopes fade, 
With the 
Tick, tick, tick, tick sound of the time
The temperature of the blood rises
I’m in my bed again
No wonder 
About the nightmares

A dark kingdom, 
Not of reality in life
But,
It’s real in my dream

It posses no king
But a beautiful queen
She praises me
A lot and I mean a lot
Again
Like in every story 
There’s but in mine as well

But,
But I left it behind 
Never to fill the gapped “But” in my life

Still,
She haunts me
She not dead in my dream
Neither she’s alive in my dream
She loves me in the dream
And haunts me when I’m awake

A dual nature,
Not exactly what I care of
But exactly as I dream of 
And exactly as I live of
