I read a story and there were two of them
One was afraid of the obvious,
he stayed within his realm of comfort.
The other was as beautiful as a bird,
but her wings wouldn't fly,
So she was only a lover in a pale blue dress.

I'm just a dreamer,
you tell the best lies to me.
Your face, it shows what you think I don't see
And why can't I say what I mean?
Instead of playing those games like we do,
We hide our tears behind our hands and keep going.

I'm desiring to live without it's remains
Cause I'm just a dreamer,
That's what I'll always be.
If you could just say it
If you just say the words
If you could just say...

I'm a coffee addict with a simple smile,
I love old clothes and flannel pajamas.
Sometimes I get lonely.
But I believe in life,
and you've got a beautiful smile.

I capture what I can,
When the time is right I'll know.
I just keep waiting for that moment
Waiting for something I don't think I am sure of.
Like a lover...In a pale blue dress...

Heather,
I enjoyed your piece ...  
I especially like your last two lines... tied it all in neatly ...
Thank you for sharing ......

Your face it shows what you think I don't see.

I love that line.

Deception wears a thin veil doesn't it.

Great

Heather,

I read and re-read your words, sometimes things get a little to deep for this old Marine and I have to do a search. I think you touch each of our failings in some way, also our dreams, You seem wistful, so I concluded part of this was the real you. Great job....bill
