Tissue

Tissue 




Do you sleep as I do
Bent upon a dream that breaks you
Lean back in a whiskey stupor
What the hell where these dreams ever made for

To burn in flightless wings
Angel kissed with Friday night wishings
And take the bitterness pill that life has in hand
But never understand

Let the rain fall on your window
If the glass ever would remind you
Of tears that I shed
Are they now a romance of dissent

It's so sad when our hopes and aspirations are disspelled by the thoughtless actions of another. And to answer your question in the first few lines, Yes, I do sleep as you do with thoughts to prohibit pleasant dreams. I can really relate to the feelings you describe, Colin. As always, written soooo well! Love, Carolyn
