Autumn Descends (dark dreams)
The moon shone gold like a one-eyed owl
perched high atop a swamp cypress tree . . .
when autumn soon descends
and bright sun-shiney summer days rescind
the mystery and the magic give in
the most deepest, the most thrilling dream
to be whisked away by darkness himself,
a faceless shadow who’s calculations
are measured by my very own heartbeat...
and my breath is caught in fear
and my heart skips a beat
like Little Red-Riding Hood
walking all alone down
a leaf-rustled path
her footsteps quicken
upon realization of the
wolf that's picked up her scent
and now trails her...
Oh, the witchyness that I feel coming on!
Hurry up Christmas!
aaaaccckk!
Calming/Reason
My friend loves this approaching time of year
I could never understand his lack of fear
But I do now...
Oh, do I EVER now!
It’s the thrill that suspends in the air
It’s the sun that’s going down for the year
it’s the end of the day
and the beginning of the night
it’s the edge of the forest
where there’s limited light
dusk
where the eyes can deceive
and sleight of hand can perceive...
Time
time to rest
time to reflect
time to reap harvests
and time to project
timelines
time lies
I am not on the clock
as this one goblin is said to be
he scares me
but I’m fascinated at the same ___
time! but of course!
take a course
change your course
resume the course
the course of dreams…
Ever wonder/Dreams...
That as soon as you stop dreaming
you’ll wake up to a split reality?
Where suits and norms are now running
towards the doors
of the artists for escape
from something that once contained
security?
Oh god!
It’s why I walk a tight rope
between dreams and reality
I could never choose which place to be
I will never give up one without the other
I need both
I crave both
I live between both worlds
A Netherworld, from "neither" world?
I will never totally face reality
and I will certainly never give up dreaming
How can I?
Why would I?
If the grim reaper lived in dream world
he could take my soul off for eternity
and I wouldn’t be the wiser for it...
Lost you say?
Perhaps
It’s more like a life in limbo
but it’s better than living a life
without any limbs
which is what would happen
if I had to choose one world over the other
handicapped, left out of life's mysteries
No! Never! Not Me!
I am too curious and I seek adventure
and I aim to solve mysteries
as do you some of you.
I dream! Oh, I dream!!
Lifeless, wandering aimlessly
oooh, I’m an “Aimless Lady”
So what becomes of me?
Walk away from me
go now... it’s poison that surrounds me!
I’m locked in a centuries-old crypt
are you sure you want to let me out?
Oh now, who is dat? Pandora!
Fuuucckckk!
I am every g-damn fairy-tale in the book
and then some!
Child
But I don’t want to be her, them, it...
*cry*
I only wanted to be normal
and No, it’s not bullshit!
It’s me!
It’s my truth!
I know something better
It’s where I’m headed
as soon as I make it through
this fast approaching darkness
oooh, spider webs fall away from me!
It’s a trip
Oh, what a trip
like Lily and Jack in Legend...
mmm, play me that light-filled yellow music
after fighting all the demons
There now, no more fear
for the time being...............
Outside of Me/Womanly
And I know you need me
But I need me too
I need my sanity
If you can find a way
to keep my hands from shaking
I will join you by the fireside to warm them
Actually, one makes me quite comfy
at first.... but I fear he's not all forthcoming?
*hands SHAKE!*
It's the other that I fear
but probably shouldn't?
but still, you both make
my nerves shake....
And I'm sorry! I'm sorrrryyy!!!
I'm sorry for all of this
really, I am.....
How can I make it better?
I dunno what to do
Oh, god this fairy tale!
We love it and we hate it
You tell me to keep my mouth shut
And I am, so be nice
and I might be there........just don't scare me. ugh.
*breathe*
Peripheral/Devil
I can hear the devil laughing.....
and I can see him out the corner of my eye
Oh, and he is wicked, he is soooo wicked.....
I knew this would happen
I knew it would!
I knew that if I kept to this path
this would be my fate!
FEAR!
FEAR!
FEAR!
Get out of here, Go!
You've been warned!
Post-Logue/The World/God
Ironically, what has brought on this fear?
Cupid-Love. Ah, Eros, where mankind first erred?
Jeez!
Do you ever think that sometimes god is jealous of man-woman love?
or is it too far beneath him? Animal... we are all part of, for now.
