I Dreamt That I Saw Paradise |

I dreamt that I saw paradise, and paradise was now. Though held behind a mighty screen, was not for me somehow. All those I'd loved, and had loved me, so warm, and close together. I alone, and none to know that I was lost forever. I pressed, in anguish, to that screen, they slowly turned from me. An emptiness that none should know, described eternity. An icy hand led me away, across the bridge of strife. Then I awoke, and how I knew, the meaning of my life. |

And you are keeping it all to yourself, eh? ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

No, Jerry, but not really as I've lived it. Thanks. |
