I Dreamt



I dreamt of a land
Free of loss
Free of tyranny

I dreamt of a land
Free of sadness
Free of tears

I dreamt of a land
Free of despair
Free of death

This land
Of which I dreamt

Is within the depths
Of that one persons
Embrace and eyes

Is within the smile
And within his grace

This land can be found
It can be lost

But only when he
Chooses the fate
Of him and I
