AN: I was reading through some of my poetry and found the poem that starts this out. When I read it, all I could think of was Prussia and Russia. So I modified it and added onto the end to make it fit more

I'm dreaming again

Seeing is believing

But dreams are like life

So quickly, quickly fleeting

There's a thick woods

In the middle of June

The sun is shining

Not a cloud in the sky

And the smell of ocean water

Lifts me up high

Between me and those woods

Is a field, so light

Green grass abound

Dew still alive

On the yellow petals of flowers

On the wings of butterflies

Oh how the breeze

Smells like spring

I dance and sing

Twirling and grinning

As my laughter fills the air

It's sickingly sweetening

I live it while it lasts

For I know

That when I wake up

I'll once again be alone

Surrounded by the hush of cold

The smells and sights of spring

Will be long gone

Once again I'll realize

That I'm no longer home

That my little brother's without me

And once again I'll be cold

For Russia will still own me

And my brother will be alone

I hope to be home before the spring

So that I may exit this dream

So that these words

Will no longer be screams
