Melancholy Dreams By: SheridanCraneFitzgerald@hotmail.com Sweet, melancholy dreams. I'll wake up puffy-eyed, With tear stains on my cheeks, And I'll sigh. Obscured by pending dark; Shadows lurk behind Every thought that comes forth, In every corner of my mind. Sweet, melancholy sighs; I'll expell and inhale, And breathe ever-slowly, Until my voice goes stale. Releasing my sighs In a puff of white air Against the frigid night, And inhaling the same share. Sweet, melancholy hope, For you by my side, With a wistful smile, But the hope has died. Searching for you With bright-eyed delight Until the darkness Takes over the light. Sweet, melancholy dreams... I'll wake up puffy-eyed, With tear stains on my cheeks, And I'll sigh. BACK
