Fleeting Peace
 

how many times

have I daydreamed

you were mine again

living in momentary bliss

only to return to this world devastated –

doomed to lose you

again and again

 

how my heart

tears itself apart

wishing to be lucid

yet to remain unconscious

just to hold you

in my arms

one last time

far away

from all that is wrong

 

to have 

just one moment

away from the storm

that rages

all around me
