The end of the dream
The skin…

Marching to the beat
Of your mental percussion…

Though you lost something you can’t replace
There’s a smile that creeps across your face…

Pairs drift through empty space
Binary stars, face to face…

Shattering glass
As you walk through the town…

The quiet surface
The chaos underneath…

The withering old man
With roses in his beard…

Conscious dream
Everything in contradiction…

The sheer white
Of arctic ice…

Seeking companionship
With the air…
