Delirium Of Daydream

When sun hides in clouds
When raindrops fall
When night sighs in silence
When none calls
When I dream in darkness
Walking in snowfall alone

In a dream I can see
World’s purity, dreamless fantasy
Snow paths white and cold
Tears of beauty in dark tower alone

I walk in silence looking at stars
Like snowflakes on a frozen palm
Shadow falls on the glittering glass
Of lake covered with ice

Wonder and awe, storytime and the last ride
Pale red dawn and withering night
Violin and poet’s hand will hold a heart full of hope
Dreamy eyes of ocean soul will save me from cold

Desire and ice
Fire and lies
Forgotten pains dwelling in hell
Rotten heart burning in lost farewell
Love and night
Day and tide
Delirium of insanity
Dear embrace of ghostly memory

Awakened and forgotten
Dreamless and forlorn
Withering in words unspoken
Faded with lovelorn

When sun hides behind grey clouds
When forest sleeps under cover of snow
When leaves play silent melody of whispering sounds
When ghost river slowly keeps its flow
When none left around
When I’m ready to go
When the journey is a path of awe
When I know that in the end I’ll come home

When in the end I’ll find my home…
