"TAKE A WALK INSIDE MY MIND"

In dreams, my love, you come to stay,
Locked inside, you can't run away.
Don't fear the dark, don’t close your eyes,
Within these depths, a soft truth lies.

Keep going, love, and don’t retreat,
There’s warmth ahead, past cold defeat.
Ignore the man who screams and weeps —
A shattered piece my silence keeps.

He’s part of me, when all went wrong,
But his grip is fierce, his hold is strong.
Stay clear of him, don’t meet his face,
He dwells inside a cursed place.

And if you feel a child is near,
Don’t be alarmed — he brings no fear.
That child is me, small hands so light,
He guards your path, he knows what's right.

I used to wish, in whispered prayer,
That you could walk inside me, there —
You’d see the truth I tried to hide,
The love I hold, so deep inside.

Now follow close — hear my soul's sound,
Let childish fingers guide you down.
He asked to hold your hand — say yes,
His grip is soft, it won't oppress.

Oh wait — don’t look beyond that wall,
Where darkest memories still crawl.
That man… the one who stole your peace,
He suffers now and finds no ease.

I lock him there, where he must stay,
And punish him each godless day.
Please turn away — you should not see
The vengeance I demand from me.

Go on, through doors of quiet grace,
You’ll find us in a gentler place.
A garden room where sun is gold,
Where love is warm and hearts are bold.

Look — there we are, both full of joy,
You, me, our girl, and little boy.
She laughs like you — her eyes the same,
We call her light, we gave her name.

This is the home I run to, dear,
Each time you flee or disappear.
It’s where the shadows dare not creep,
It’s where my demons fall asleep.

I don’t know who I’d be, or how,
Without this dream we’re living now.
Though words may fail, please know it’s true —
This heaven lives because of you.

And when my time on Earth is done,
This is the place where I will run.
No pain, no cries, no hollow moan —
Just you, and me, and light — alone.

I never needed to know the true nature of darkness—
Because I had already found my light in you.
An angel with emerald eyes,
A soul so radiant it banished every shadow in mine.

I once believed, with a quiet certainty,
That our story would end not in sorrow,
But in a sacred moment—
You beside me, hand in hand,
Eyes brimming not with grief,
But with the weight of love
And the ache of temporary parting.

From the instant I saw you,
I knew you were the one
Who had wandered through my dreams,
Night after night,
Your voice echoing softly
Long before it ever reached my ears.

I couldn’t let you go
Without hearing that sound in waking life—
That voice that had become my lullaby.

But as all light eventually fades,
So too did ours dim and vanish.
Now, I ***** through shadows,
Trying to find you again
In the echoes of laughter,
In the warmth of memory.

Your smile, etched in my mind,
Is the last star in a darkening sky—
The only thing keeping me from falling
Into the abyss that beckons.

Please—
If you still linger in the ether,
Reach for me.
I am here.
Arms outstretched,
Grasping at emptiness,
Begging for your light
To return once more
And illuminate this darkness
You left behind.

— The End —
