A dream

Out of nowhere

Which could be anywhere

She approached

Me, sitting upon the barn wood bench

Lakeside facing as each and every morning

Writing my thought and dreams

She said to me

Tell me what it is I see

Looking up

Into eyes shading truth 

I said to her

Only if you listen

To the waves of reason and accept

Will you see what it is you see

Eyes setting like a sun on her feet

Ever so slightly she breathed

I’ve hidden long enough

Truth has left my soul

To listen and accept is my season

You’re a product of a story gone bad

I whispered to her heart

All intentions striking foul ground

A house built of cards

A belief made of sand

No foundation other than vanity

You are not to blame

For the course which was laid

You are however for lacking courage

For believing and following such loneliness

Rather than being true to yourself

You see I said

With a sweeping arch of my hands

The security of false impressions

Nourishes your fears

Failing to save yourself

Believing you are saving others

Eyes arisen looking into mine

Why so harsh you cut to my heart

She cried

Knowing full well

This truth she has seen

With my thoughts and dreams

Set to my side

I stripped the veil clear

You follow the way of lies

From a seed gone bad

By ego and pride

To only stop the harvest of rot

Needed is truth and more truth

Inhaling I sought the solstice saying

And now it is for you to decide

Whether it is all and always will be

Unlike what you have seen and been taught

The world this so big world

So much more than just about you

Finishing telling what she already knew

What she already could see

A mirror’s reflection

The surface of the lake so clear

With the winds of change

Cleansing the tree of old leaves and lies

Off she walked to nowhere

Which can be anywhere

Picking up my thought s and dreams

Saddling up to see another day

And knowing as knowing is

I would never see her again
