Beautiful

Resting
hidding in a cloud
resting in this calm
cool tendril fingers all around

such a calm feeling
i am hiding in
i wish i could describe
wish i could begin

dewy droplets in my hair
i'm sleeping with the stars
and these cool soft clouds
bear me to dreamlands afar

it's like my head is filled with cotton
perhaps i'm under water?
but i'm so comfortable and cool
it doesn't really matter.

i'll figure this out later
for now i'll lie and rest
enjoy the cool dampness
save this lovely feeling deep inside my chest

but as i close my eyes to sleep
i awake to a sound
suddenly the lovely coldness
is ripping from all around

this beautiful cotton
that swamped my mind
is being torn away
somebody is looking for me, i wish they wouldn't find

quickly this fog dissipates
the numbness does receed
and i am falling falling falling
suddenly, i feel need

reality is suddenly whipping
all around
i try to cry, but
my throat does not make a sound

a vortex of spinning pain
i cannot escape
it seems to me that confussion
is what i was dealt by fate

the beautiful feeling
i enjoyed is now ripped away
these lovely clouds no longer support
and i am falling falling falling into the grey
