Dream Lost Dream

The taunting aroma of a dream
Secretly haunts my mind
Ensnares me in its tangled web
To everything else I am blind

Can't keep my eyes off the prize
following its melodic call
dancing around the landmines
watching others as they fall

Rotting away my other desires
It becomes my only lust
The golden key at last within reach
Just as my life turns to dust.

Lost my dream, in a dream
As the clock is ticking away
Lost my dream, in a dream
As the night fades into day
