I have never known

where to draw the line

my fantasies, bleed out

from the end of a pencil

onto blank pages

where thoughts spill

without ink, splotches

of words, erased, replaced

then smeared again

by the brush of my hand

or is it my vision, blurring

the existing lines, a verse

left unattended because

I have fallen asleep

into yet another dream

Ruffled in red, lips the same hue

She sits at a table, once meant for two

The champagne, now gone, an empty glass

Waiting beside her, this sorrowful lass

Hopes of togetherness, no longer exist

He left her for another, his secret tryst

She lays down her head, as sleep settles in

And dreams of a love, that never has been

Woven like strings

Waiting to be heard

My thoughts come together

In the wake of a word

Visions, set apart,

From reality, seem

Ghostly, compared

To my last vivid dream

Still I continue

To weave when I write

Those thoughts that awaken

Within me, at night

Elfin angel, sleeps aloft, at night

Cradling against the lunar light

Wonder what she’s dreaming of

Wrapped in stars, from high above

Could she be thinking of what’s below?

Or how far down she needs to go

To find the Earth, on which she’ll play

Perhaps it’s best, up here, to stay

Yes, she is purely a heavenly child

For which the moon has now beguiled

A spirit held within a book
She wished upon a dream
Scattering dandelion seeds
Like a pixie, she did scheme

Page by page, twas magic
She made them dance in rhyme
From fantasy to tragic
Every word was quite sublime

So, when the pages filled
And no more could be contained
Another flower did she pick
To spread the seeds, again
