Array ( [sid] => 57174 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A dream within a dream [time] => 2004-07-22 12:25:04 [hometext] => I don't know what I mean. I've been confused for several days. I write, I write, I sing. The past in front of me. [bodytext] => Was that you in there
Or was it just a dream
I wanted to run
Then I saw you
____________

So much has happend
These pictures are no longer true
I wish this was the dream
And I was with you

But for all the nights that were black
now turns to blue
My savior I have failed to make
any other than you
I have failed to make a difference
from black and you
____________

light & day
you are they
bringing smile to me
leaving me alittle bit
happy
_____________

Chasing sleep and space
Scrabbling my memories for you
Searching home and faith
But knowing the past is erased
_____________

If only the dream was real
And this was when I was asleep
Then I would love the feel
And learn how to keep
Everything I took for granted

If only you weren't the dream
I could sleep with these things
Rather than feeling torn
And praise you like the queen
Instead of taking you for granted
____________

I have......hurt.you.....I have......tried.you.....have.....bled.....for.my.....life.

Very effective ending. Groovy. As a Poe fan I also compliment you on having the kintama--or cajones, if you prefer--to call it A Dream Within A Dream.--the Moth
