Pool Of Salty Tears

[Shadow Poet]

So ethereal are these dreams that you walk my soul right in
As soft and tender as the light that imprints as we step
Where shall we go from here, what fair journey now awaits
You lead me through the loveliness in comfort and with grace
I swim you in emotion and take you where I need
You bathe the silence of my soul with faithful melody
Nothing wills me more than the reasons we exist
My life is yours to keep yet the depth where dark abyss
Denies me of the light the day can sometimes bring about
And does remain to me that although I am without
You've gone away to where there is a pool of salty tears
And I am he who did produce the way that life appeared
I'm sorry for the things I've done that darkened me within
Just know inside, no matter what, you are the life I live

[Dark Muse]

This was beautiful, and such lush and wonderful imagery

hi, was the first part when he dreams, then the second when he's awake? i like this line: "As soft and tender as the light that imprints as we step" this is wonderful, and i wrote a song like this many years ago, before i changed from only rhymes:
Woke up to a French word
Message in a dream
Spoken by a French girl
Lover never seen
Unremembered scenes and
Words that don't belong
Changing what she means and
Stealing from her song
Desperate in the daytime
Feeling full of fear
That I never may find
What at night I hear
Just a simple French word
Spoken then erased
Magic of a dream heard
Life cannot replace
