Oasis of a Dream 
In a Tranquil absence of Soul.

Aspirations of the Heart Abound.

Incense pay Homage to Dreams of fragile Love,
Floating away on a Cloud.

Suck at the Breast of Sorrow,
For Knowledge unbeknown,
You Reckless Beast of Burden Elude.

Quench Thirst with Sorrow of undying love,
In Turmoil forgotten,
Delicate Monster of Doom.

I dream, 
Where are you?

I love you?
But I don’t know you.
A dream?

There you are,
A dream?
How can this be?

The park so beautiful,
Children play,
A dream?

We touch,
We play,
A dream?

What fun,
What love,
A dream?

A love that can never be?
What dream?

My heart breaks,
But I must let you go.

No more dreams?
No more tomorrows?

A dream?
A kiss?

The moon fades.

The Spiders home
So small so thin,
Do you ever think
Where's she's never been?

She spins her home
Then just waits
Hoping for a meal
At her gate.

You'll never see
A tear she might shed
For getting love
Her mate does dread.

Saunter to the web
Is what he must do
Hoping she doesn't
Turn him to stew.

A simple life
Like so very many
Exiled to ground
With legs so skinny.

 Feared by many
When sneaking around
Heavy breath
Does abound.
