At the edge and a doorway,TX

It sure is strange what you can write after you have some interesting dreams. Enjoy!


As I stand upon a cliff
I look down briefly into eyes
Eyes of ocean blue
Your eyes
Haunting yet satisfying
My lost soul
Words echo off peaks far around me
You see who I am or who I want to be
Those eyes
They know something--hide something
I lack the strength to move--to breath
Frozen
Gazing deeper and deeper
Meanings of life yet nothing at all
Questions flow silently above my head
Just slightly out of reach
"Why are you here?"
"You know why"
"What do you want?"
"Same things as you"
"Who are you?"
"I am you"
"WHO ARE YOU!!?"
"No! Who are you?"
"I don't know"
"I don't know"
Rocks shake below as my body begins to spin
Falling
Not feeling anything
Suddenly everything hits me
The wind takes me into her loving arms
She glides me to safety
As those beautiful eyes rock me to sleep
"Rest now I will be back for a better answer tomarrow night"
"Who are you?"
My words drift from my mouth
They fall upon deaf ears
"Who am I?"
Those perfect blue eyes following me always
"What is the right answer?"
Blue eyes that lead to no where...
Show me
Show me


Love,
Lady


Live in my world just once and you'll find yourself enraptured.
