We walked by the light
Hand in hand by the stream
Alone here in my dreams

Outside my mind cold resides
Lonely tunes play on
my soundtrack to a forshortened life

Where is life truer
Here or out there
In that 'real' world

Then it all burns
The river becomes fire
The sky becomes ice

Once again i am alone
My own conciousness intervenes
Reality reasserts itself

Tommorrow night will come i know
The same dream brought once again
on the back of my tears.

A very poignant write, Paul.
May your nightmares give way to quiet serene acceptance.
