You were there
there in my dreams
you took them
formed them

into physical entitys
made them live, breath
vibrate, harmonise
and touch the world

My dreams in technicolour
In an unimaginable world
an aurora of light and sound
They were everywhere

Your mind and mine
in an unimaginable
awe inspireing
Dance of Art and fantasy

each note and beat
Pound, Pound, Pounding
Beating its rythem
Imprinting itself on my being

I can sit alone in the dark
Silent and Still
Hearing that sound
My soul echoes its centre

The universe inside
Me, You, Family, Friends
Enemys and everyone
Mirrored in music

Then came the drag the end
the end of my dreams
the end of anything and everything
Judgement Day the Final chapter

Now the dreams are gone
And you are past history
Your legacy young child
Touched by the music

But the Soul has died
The music is gone
you are forgotten
Covered up and done

Now I dream of the yesterday
that I miss so much
As dreams and reality mingled
As your voice, my soul touch

the present and Future are bleak
Now only dust remains
As scattered remnants on the road
Are Washed away by the rain

On these dusty roads
these last memories that stay
here I make my home now
Waiting for the day

One day my soul will fly
Among the clouds and blue
And touch a child small and shy
So make reach the moon

My soul I instill in him
Your voice to him I pledge
Every life will light him
And every spotlight fall true

But now my dreamings done and past
My soul is emptey
And reality clear as glass
Now only the question

Did the music dream me
Or did I the music make.

Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd

Nice "perspective on the past" piece. It's a poetic short story. Too cool.
