Vigilance


Radiant colored hollow skies fill the view Feelings more powerful than a giant I smile with comforting thoughts of You. Not the world can replace you in my heart Weather starts churning, trees start thundering Suddenly my Dream is interrupted. Happiness is torn apart Reality hits as my trembling eyes burst open with fear I know I must re-enter my dream land The only faithful Place where agonizing pain doesn't appear Sleep left my weak side as i entered the truthful state of war Forgive the heavens, for fault is not in their hands Pray to hold me gently as the merciless devil whispers "you can't live anymore"
