A Mystic Dream

by Chris Sheffler - Aries

The curtain is closing on another show,
for how long have I wanted you to know,
that my love for you grows each passing day,
but now as I look, it seems you’ve walked away...

I’ve seen all the others that worship you dear,
but in their hearts do they hold you so near?
But I am nothing more than a single grain of sand,
pushed aside by the creator’s unforgiving hand...

All that I ever wanted was to be with you,
did you believe that I was only being untrue?
That I made all this up, nothing was real?
I’m sorry my love, but this is how I do feel...

Look into my heart and see what you mean to me,
you are my ray of light, you are my glassy sea,
you’re the only one on this earth that I hold most dear,
have I shown you what I mean, is everything crystal clear?

I don’t want to hide behind this mask that I wear,
I want you to know, how much I truly do care,
you’ll always have a sacred place in my heart,
but it breaks every day that we are so far apart...

As night closes in and the light’s growing low,
these are my words, I hope you now know,
everything in my heart and the way that I feel,
and how nothing will change, it shall ever be real...
