I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF A DRAGON
WHO SAT NEXT TO ME WATCHING
MY DREAMS, MY THOUGHTS, MY
EVERY MOVE, MY EVERY MEMORY,
MY EVER FALL, I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF A MAN, WHO SAT NEXT TO ME FOR ALMOST AN HOUR, SAT THEIR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY I WAS CRYING IN MY SLEEP,
I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF A GOD, A HOLY GOD, THE ONLY GOD, THE EVERYTHING, MY EVERYTHING, MY ALL, THE REASON FOR MY EXISTENCE, MY MEANING IN LIFE,
I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF ME SITTING IN A TREE, THINKING OF YOU AND ME, SITTING, LAYING ON THE GRASS WITH NOTHING ELSE TO DO BUT TO WAIT,
I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF A HEART,
A BROKEN HEART, A SENTIMENTAL HEART, WHO BROKE IN HALF, THEN JUST LIKE PAPER, SHREDDED TILL NO TOMORROW, THIS ISN'T THAT DARK, I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF MY FUNERAL, MY FUNERAL CAME CLOSE, CAME NOT SO FAR AWAY, FOR THIS WAS TODAY, I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF A CAR PULLING IN THE DRIVEWAY KILLING MY FATHER AND HE BLEEDING TODAY, FOR TODAY HE ISN'T WITH ME OKAY?
I ONCE HAD A DREAM BUT ALL THIS WAS TRUE, FOR TODAY I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF WHAT CAME FOR ME, MY PAST, MY PRESENT, AND MY FUTURE.
I ONCE HAD A DREAM OF YOU...
READING THIS POEM, AND FEELING MY EMOTIONS RUN DOWN ON YOU.
I ONCE HAD THIS DREAM,
THAT SOON YOU WILL HAVE TOO!
