Dying Shadows Dance
Silently falling asleep
To the sound of
My own voice,
The room is dimly lit
And there are visions
Of you in my mind...
There is a hushed warmth
But also
Bitter cold,
Dying shadows dance
Softly upon my wall
Like puppets....
And the shivers,
They run down my spine
In whispers of a
Noiseless ghost,
I see illusions
Of painted bears
And silk wings,
Autumn leaves
And prancing things...
Unicorns dance softly
Through my dreams
A ballerina figure
Capers across
As but a memory...
The room is old
And dimly lit
I know this place
I recognise this...
Dancing bears
And paper hearts
Float away,
Tearing apart...
Illusions and dreams
