In dreamland grandeur
I held mesmerised peace
Innocence breathed again
A mind¹s escape
Leave walls of tears behind
Ethereal vision haunting still.....
The solitude left me blind
Beneath an open sky
Sibilant cries of youth dying
Enslave me with grief
A moonlit era, oblivion¹s twilight kiss
Wishes in lament
Happiness in a broken vision
Utopia still unborn.....
Tormented echoes of a fallen Eden
I longed for her beauty
Yet from dust, she returned
The dream, an enigma.... silent
