Of faded dreams

In that dream
With you I laid
And felt your breath
The warmth you made

You said my name
That you were mine
But yours is lost
Lost to time

"Will I die"
You asked of me
"When you wake
And loose this dream"

I felt I knew
But could not say
That with the dawn
You'd fade away

I closed my eyes
I held you near
And felt your love
As your eyes did tear

So now I sit
This world awake
And cling to thoughts
That time will take

My dreams are shadows
Your face is gone
I've lost your love
I've lost your song

Through Death's Door

In the dark I sit alone
And dream of things I've never known
Of grass of green and sky of blue
But most of all I dream of you

Through my door your soul did flow
What brought you hear I'll never know
I felt your warmth as you drew near
And knew at once you felt no fear

I weighed your heart against my own
And saw it plummet like a stone
So I drank your dreams as is my due
And feared what life had done to you

Your dreams were dark and filled with pain
Of broken bones and endless shame.
But still the kindness inside your soul
Had sought a love you'd never know

So a second chance I gave to you
To find a love and know its true
And through my door your soul did fly
To not return until you die

But as time does pass I feel your dreams
The pain you feel is calling me
I can not sit here any more
And so I step beyond my door

What dreams are these

What dreams are those
That fill the night
Beyond the walls
Beyond the light

The shadows race
Across the moon
And play a song
A mournful tune

Their child was lost
Could not be found
They call her name
But hear no sound

And so they search
Forever more
For she who's lost
Beyond Death's door

A short poem

A world of grey, eternal night
I seek a soul, a shining light
To guide me through this pain and fear
To hold me close when end is near

I feel the darkness all around
It calls my name without a sound
To wear the mask that no one knows
To hide within and stay alone

And in the night its song is sweet
I feel it whisper as I sleep
To stay within this world I made
To never let this feeling fade

But in the light I'm forced awake
And know the love I felt as fake
To loose a soul that was not real
To know the loss I should not feel

And so I search this world of grey
A shining soul to light my way
To dream with me in darkest night
To stay with me, through dawn's first light

Of things to come.

Of thoughts and dreams do worlds come forth, through seas of shadow and fear.
At times a glimpse unseen, a whisper on the winds of destiny.
But when the seas do roll and the winds do howl, what sights will be revealed?
Will you embrace the chaos of the mind and ride the storms of thought?
Will you hide within a shell of sanity, free from dreams unclean?
Who are those who ride the waves of change?
Who are those who fight the coming storm?
The war is here.
The end is nigh.
Will you fight for the rising sun?
Will you fight for the night to end?
