Array ( [sid] => 88421 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => not right, only dreaming [time] => 2005-03-22 22:56:04 [hometext] => [bodytext] => you have been my only friend true
so many secrets divulged only to you
now fighting such tragic distance at hand
I’d be out of line to contact you for consolation
and off-limits is an impossible demand
this sadness overwhelms me in my soul
it turns in my stomach
and i am not in control
i thought we'd be complicated together forever
i thought we'd be messy together, too
I thought we'd be centered together
i thought we'd be mistaken but true

you've been my kindred and stars
you were familiar the first time we met
i knew the world could be ours
i just didn’t know it would be this hard
this hole inside me is violating me
it buckles my knees
and i can't stop the flood of everything
i thought we'd be reckless together
i thought we’d be close, not so far
i thought we'd be possible forever
i thought we'd be endless like stars

but i was not right, only dreaming
if i could figure out to change time
i would re-open the possibilities
and make the wrong things right

withdrawing, numbing renders this no less severe…

i thought we'd be random together
i thought we'd be standing together
i thought we'd be sleeping together
thought we'd be healthy together
but i was not right, only dreaming

thought we'd be forgiving together
thought we'd be precious together
i thought we'd be freedom together
thought we'd be on loving forever
but i was not right, only dreaming

WOW! A very cleverly written piece, so full of longing and...despair?
Excellent format and flow...leaves the heart sad...
