All in Your DreamsA Poem by Kieran James McGovernPut your tears in a bottle And cast it out to sea Wish upon the morning star that you can’t even see Through the clouds of obscurity Angels start to weep So raise your empty bottle to the sky And wake up in your dreams Like an old, nursery rhyme from your childhood You remember not so well It seems you’re stuck between the lines In your own private hell You can douse the flames but the smoke remains Echoes of a silent scream A thing forever dead within your past But alive inside your dreams Your heart sloppily sewn onto your sleeve Nobody sees it in your dreams Tomorrow will come Whenever it does Don’t sweat the clouds that are blocking out the sun Broken notions melt back together As unwanted memories evaporate Try and keep it even in your dreams To hold when you’re awake © 2010 Kieran James McGovern |
