Birds awoken the dreamer
still clinging to his slumber
chasing a ghost of a woman
who was in another plane, another land
He created worlds for her
in hopes of a life of them together
wars were fought and sacrifices brought
only to see her lost forever
The dreamer was uneasy
for he had long accepted the dream as reality
being used to the dark and cold
surrendered and doing as he is told
by his passions and desires
pursuing her shadow with ire
letting himself be consumed by fire
caught in dark pits of mire
And so the birds heralded the morning
to which he tried to resist
but as he came to his senses, remembering
how beautiful this world that really exists
Sunshine and people starting their day
no longer did the dream held sway
for the dreamer finally free of strife
after awakening to a bird's song of life
