Would you tell me that I'm crazy-
If I told you of my dream?
Just the two of us together-
By a sparkling, mountain stream...

Exploring our emotions...
Letting every thought unwind-
Is it duty, or devotion?
Will the truth, at last, we find?

Could I tell you of my childhood-
Let the telling ease the pain?
Could we find the vanished innocence-
And learn to love again?

Could you see beneath the surface-
Of a loner with a gun?
To the boy who's been hiding...
Long desiring love, and fun.

Could we walk along together-
In the shadows of the trees?
Laughing, talking, like two children-
In the fragrant, mountain breeze?

Oh, this dream that I am telling-
Is the best I ever had...
Would you tell me now, my darling...
Do you think I'm going mad?

I would never believe a man is MAD, that has the strength of the stroke of your pen. I like your style.

And yours words divine

Hmmmm, I guess I will dissagree with the others.  I think you are certifiable!

Just kidding.  Nice read.

Thanx

Would I tell you you're mad?
Nope...not if you helped me back to my feet...
after swooning....
love this!!

dancing with you in the summer rain~
