Heading to China

I awoke last night to a world where the stars never burn out.
My feet tapping to the beat of the world
Feeling at ease with everything
Inside my head I could still see the joyous picture show I had just experienced.
The girl of my dreams dancing between each of my thoughts.
A smile that mirrors the one in my mind widens
I can feel my heart beating out a rhythmic pulse
The music of my soul is playing through the air waves
Like a Latin samba it takes the body under it's control
I can not seem to shake this feeling
I know I should try to go to sleep
Yet my only thoughts are of this cosmic dance
Wondering how this concoction came to be
My ears still thumping like a bass drum
The synapses in my brain are going off like a snare
My eyes fixated on the ceiling, yet all I can see is the way she moves
Her body stepping in and out of the shadows
I know this is my mind playing tricks on me
But who cares when the dream lifts your heart
Even if it is just for tonight
The last thoughts I remember are of her
And the music of the night.

Tomorrow comes for those who fear it.
Today never ends for those who live it.
