"i dreamt of you,
dreams i couldn't afford -
for if i could,
i might indulge to dream some more."

today i dreamt i was flying,
flying oh so high
right through the sky,
the sensation so real
i felt that if i took
even a little breath,
i might fall.

i dreamt that the sky
i was soaring through
was the same blue
your eyes turned to
when they were blazing red,
a hurricane mixed
with the calming sea.

i dreamt that i was weightless,
yet on the verge of eminent doom
every second i didn't plant my feet
firmly on the ground,
right next to you.

today i dreamt a dream so sweet
- and yet so so sour -
and not only was this dream of you,
it was of possiblity too.

today i dreamt a dream,
and maybe if it was little bit more cynical,
i'd believe that you - too -
could feel the way i do.
