    My Dream Truth

    The shadow of my peaceful painful memory
    I can’t stop myself from calling out to you
    The blanket of my love wrapped around you
    The sky darkened as I remembered how you bit into my heart
    To watch the climax of the destruction I began
    Then it hurts more when you find me
    And all the others who stole pieces of your soul
    I’ll tell you a secret: I really didn’t mean to
    Deep down, we really loved each other
    I was trying to fix it
    I didn’t know your fragile shoulder would give way
    Still feeling so lonely and cold
    The horrible things I did to you
    I went away
    I went away
    You’re setting yourself up to be screwed over
    You’re surrounded by multicolored masks
    So no one knows how deep the pain flows
    In a glass cage on opposite sides of prison bars
    I carry a golden key
    I only thought of you
    My soul smiles when you’re near
    I was the only one who was really real
    There is no one else for you, or visa versa
    I am everything you’ve been searching for
    Your eyes…they whisper everything
    Your scars show that you have lived
    Because your soul still trusts me
    I will teach your aching heart to beat again
    To free you once again

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
