A Beautiful Disaster

The whispering voice, so well-known,
Mysterious dreams, all the same, -
I live in the world of my own,
Of grief in a beautiful frame.

I know that something is missing -
The mind locked the heart in a cage.
I'm no more living - existing,
Just playing my part on the stage.

I open my soul to a stranger,
Whose guise is well-known, as it seems.
He smiles, always calls me his angel
And - all... Then I wake from this dream.

My reveries are the best ever mirrors
That show my strength deep inside;
I gain all this strength from my fears
To lose what has never been mine.
