Velvet curtains draw over an azure dream
As absent wanderers trace lazy circles in cream
And as the bluest skies fade with a whisper of a smile
The world holds its breath and watches for a while
Is a moment better spent here or where you while away?
Finally a choice with no wrong, and a place to stay
So comforted in ways so hard to express
Such a pleasant torture with your scent on my chest
And is it wrong to want to worship when a soul feels only rejoice?
Or is that what Heaven is supposed to mean, if given the choice?
As velvet curtains draw over an azure dream
An an absent wanderer learns how to breathe
The bluest eyes close with the tease of a smile
And the world holds its breath and daydreams for a while
A pressure on the chest as much within as without
Accompanies a smile that knows nothing of doubt
The scent of forever teasing breezes of repose
While that long left withered finds room to grow
And is it wrong to smile while tears trace the lines of your face?
Or does it mean that Heaven was never meant to be a place?
Black velvet tucks in around azure dreams
While an absent wanderer wonders what forever means
The bluest eyes never close, though she dreams for a while
And the world holds its breath as it feels itself smile
Is a moment better spent in your arms, or with you in dreams?
Or does it matter either way, as long as you have me?
Drawing comfort from the bluest eyes resting where I lay
And wondering if prayer means asking forever to stay
Is it wrong to believe forever has a choice?
Or maybe no one ever asked Heaven if it had a voice?
Guarding velvet curtains as they comfort azure dreams
An absent wanderer wonders if perhaps this is what Heaven means
Keeping watch over blue eyes with the smallest of smiles
Holding his breath and just watching for a while
