I dreamt a dream last night, with script, and lights <br />And commentary, all came to life <br />This dark man appeared and wandered in <br />And wanted me in his life <br /> <br />I was meeting him in places unseen <br />Brave, I thought, and smart and kind <br />I met and followed him into his world <br />Walking not too far behind <br /> <br />‘T was my mistake as he was a fake <br />His charm was tainted with grime <br />His soul forgotten, he'd lost his way <br />And he wanted to steal mine <br /> <br />Led astray, for a moment for the want in me <br />The want to belong, and to find <br />Another soul like me, I thought, but then <br />Alas my faith was too blind <br /> <br />The one your thoughts go first with <br />Take heed I said, pay attention <br />Your instincts are true, and the voice it is clear <br />And they are your sole’s intention <br /> <br />I left that man standing alone <br />Sought the darkness out on my own <br />Better that and to follow my own truth <br />Than lay with him and become a mere stone <br /> <br />Would be Death of my soul, it would flicker then die <br />And light chased out far beyond <br />Take heed my child, I said to myself <br />You have just survived death and beyond………<br /><br />jennifer jane pryce<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/death-and-beyond-2/
