Wishful Dreams

2010-04-08

Wishful dreams brought down

By incessant memories

Simple thoughts and complex desires

Shortened breath reaching

For a life on fire

Answers in search of a question

Reaching for feeling

Denying the suggestion

Wondering while lying

Wait for the moment

Turn the laugh into a frown

Spin their chair

Turn their world upside down

Overcompensate

Stand up

From the sinking suspicion

That your bed is lying in wait

Wishful dreams crying out to be had
