Nightmare Quest
The rain is at my window As I collapse, lifeless As sleep and comfy pillows Take over For an hour or two A dreamworld snatched From heady reality On a cliff The wind at my back I'm running down And to the beach Your figure I spy With your back to mine The years I searched Pass before my eyes I reach this point That brings to an end The tireless quest The tears and sighs You turn around And I run Into your embrace The feel of your fingers Running through my hair I look up into your eyes And smile You have no face I wake up My bed soaked in sweat The nightmare ends But the quest runs on Written September 12, 2010
