Paradox

Once Upon a Dream

Lucent dreams
of candy thoughts.
Fill my mind of what is not.
Here I go down this path
of sadness that will forever last.
Tightly held by the painful grasp.

Her hair burned fire red,
I miss waking up to her in bed.
Her laugh and smile would send me into bliss.
Now, without her is something I surely miss.
I wish I could hold forever our last kiss.

Now, I just sit and wait.
It has become too late,
I have sealed my own fate.
I wish I had a clean slate.
All I can do now is watch the fading gleam.
This all happened once upon a dream.
