a dream


Life is a dream
I never thought I'd see.

One where the flowers bloom
And sing to me with

Airy voices on the edge of
A smiling stream.

A dream where the buzzing bee
Can keep his honey

And i may fly alongside
Her Majesty the Queen.

It's where the mountains dance
And the meadow sleeps

As rocks provide a clear path
To the warmth

And beauty of sunshine 
By the sea

Where i am with Happiness
As my lover to be.

It's a dream i dream
While fighting the embrace of

A creeping Shadow.

He patiently waits for the day 
I forget my dream

Stalking along my 
Pathway to darkness

As He knows judgment 
Is fast approaching.
