Golden Wishing Well Virginia A. Sheppard
In my dreams of darkness, I have walked with thee, Hand in hand we search for peace. For my dreams are most always dark, There are many journeys I desire to embark.
In these dreams of darkness I turn to thee, What kind of souls must we really be? To live in this world so full of pain, How does one living soul remain so sane?
I ask thee this one question, In hopes of one simple suggestion.
You return my gaze, your eyes full of curiosity, full of doubt. I strongly fear I already know, tis a waste of time to stand here and pout.
Together we continue to walk hand in hand, There must be a way for all of us to band. In hopes of this journey, I seek to find peace, I wish for all of this violence to finally cease.
All I can say my faithful one, One thing important, it must be done.
Never question your true identitiy, For this is a very cruel humanity.
All walks of life are gifted at birth, It is their right to walk this earth.
Tis not wise nor fair to question ones life, Our purpose is not to judge but to offer advice.
To offer all our kindness, all our friendship, In hopes of bringing peace and overcoming this hardship.
To form an army consisting of peace and love, A love as pure and innocent as the heavens above.
Oh, wise angel...now I know what I must do, where I must start... For my dreams of darkness lie deep within my heart.
Everything I see and everything I hear, It has caused me to feel such a terrifying fear.
My spirit has ben contained tightly in my shell, I need to free it from the burnings of my own hell.
Like a small fragile bird trapped in its cage, She needs to be freed from her very own rage.
My eyes of sadness avert to your eyes, Your eyes twinkle with brightness, I see no lies.
A smile curls upon the corners of your lips, You take my hands and lay upon them a sweet gentle kiss.
My dear angel, you need my help no longer, You have just proved to me you are much stronger.
You must never look for me in your dreams of darkness, Be true to yourself, true to your heart, never heartless.
Once you get past this hardship you have lived for so long, You will notice I am always here with you, where I belong.
No more shall your dreams be of darkness but to the path of light, In given time, you will see that I am right.
For now my sweet one, I must bid you farewell, Look unto your dreams for the golden wishing well.
This golden wishing well holds all your passions and your desires, The next time you call upon me, I will come to you as your sire.
