Through the sight of a dream-coated window
Lays the spectacle of fallen hopes
And in the tremulous luminescence of twilight
Its an image that makes hearts soar
Such caramelized beauty
Its too mighty to behold
But in this secret sanctuary,
Silence, will take a hold of you
Perhaps all I see are reflections
Of a vagabond’s hall of broken dreams
But they are true to a heart’s contemplation
That I can’t help but wonder what it means.
It’s a journey down a milky path,
Of all the could be’s and love-me-not's,
But in the color voyage of this twilight
Every damn question comes to light.
For this is me, and I establish,
That any forsaken path I choose,
Would be to guide me in the direction,
To the mighty sigh of life
And here I am, watching at that,
Wondering perhaps if time will ran,
Will ran out on me as it’s done before,
Leaving nothing but a vagabond’s dream
And a broken hope.
I gaze up again, and that window,
Shines with sapphire light
Of a sour milky twilight,
Who’s only purpose is to,
To drown those dreams
Down the never-ending
Universe.
Author notes
Saw the movie I'm not here about Bob Dylan, and the twilight coincided with the end of the movie, so the bolt of electricity that followed lead to the poem.
