Your Music

On a rose-colored pedestal you sit
Comfortable yet?
Wrapped in the robes of admiration
I can’t touch you…
Like a wise stone you lay
An old soul wrapped in generations
You know what you want
I’ll try to be that someday
Another morning and again I fail
Snapping out of a dream is the saddest sound for a broken heart
The kisses were so real
But you’re still so far away
The moon and stars would never please you
A restless nomad in a stable life
Surrounded by things you don’t want
And given nothing you need
Music is all I want to be
So close to the heart, so ready in the mind
Able to cure any wound, ease any pain
Get off the stage and sing to me
The lights are dim and the ghosts enjoy the show
The snap is coming
The worst sound in the world…

Sadness of waking from a dream is felt very strongly....To be lost in the music of the dream the desired goal....Wonderful writing...
