Behind closed lids,
I see forever.
Fields of purples and greens,
Rivers of reds and yellows,
The sky an opaque peach-
Opening before a vast land.
There is a cliff, at whose edge
I am standing—
Stars in the night sky
Twinkle in earnest.
Oh, sweet forever;
Kiss me with the fire that
Melts my heart into nothing.
Let my soul flow through your valleys;
And there may you sing
Sweet melodies of my past.
Keep me forever
In your arms.
So I may always float above
The shaking horizon.
