About the Poem
Love can make time stand still or project us to a level that is unexplainable. It's only when you take a look back at all that you learned that you realize that you seemed to be sitting in the middle of a dream, finding yourself in the lead role. "Bad Dreams and Truth" seeks out a girl or strives to distinguish between dreams, truth, and love.
Bad Dreams And Truth |
| by Ellie |
| What do you know about me I'm an empty image, an appearance You gaze as I stroll by, but can't speak I often see your face so bleak Every time I look up you don't escape What I remember years ago. You spoke and I fell to you feet You moved and I held your hand You ran and I beat you to my heart Stars falling like is in the sand I had you there inside my car Talking was distant, seemed so far I knew that something was so wrong All playing on that sad song They were deeper than Shakespeare's sonnets They said more than Romeo to Juliet Squinting said I Love You but with no words As much as I try I can't forget I look up, you can't escape What your eyes really say Years were wasted, yes I know People leave and people grow Like old magic tricks and stormy nights You chase me into raging frights Escaping The gaze you gave before heartache Like a roller coaster in slow motion You hit me with a dizzy spell, a filling potion Your touch made me high, floating away Trying to walk but could only sway Red madness pouring to the ground Is that how blood is supposed to sound Heart racing so fast my soul on the floor Leaving so quickly it begins to roar I look up you don't escape How it felt my soul you take Waking in disoriented madness Rolling in delusional sadness Scanning for your familiar face White walls, a well known embrace A nightmare beyond compare Dream this, dream this, if you dare Familiar words, "I live for you" Hearing your voice, it seemed so true. |
