Someone Else's Dream

Towards the far corner, 

An alluring kaleidoscopic spark

Catches my attention, and 

Besides the growing tension,

I hear a known voice. 

 

An out-of-the-world precipise 

Presents a familiar figure 

Who could overwhelm my heart.

Her unsurprised, unmoved eyes

Jesture that I was expected.

 

A gluesome lump in my throat

Lets the feeling float in silence

As she rows to capture it,

The mutuality of adorance 

Precipitates a smile on her face. 

 

In this heavenly wide space,

I leave no memorable traces

That'd let me revert back,

And neither does she hold back

The beautiful, forgettable firsts.

 

The first stutter of flirty line

Before I could call her mine,

The first flutter of romantic veil

Before the florid ship of love 

Could begin it's eternal sail;

 

And I say, 'curtain the loud,

Awakening beam, for I am still 

Awake in someone else's dream;

Silence the rooster's scream, for I'm 

Still sound in someone's dream
