Of laughing winds that wound round my mind
Or the forgotten years
As I casually stroll through time
I view the world with my usual bitter eyes
I don’t dream anymore

Of loving words whispered in my ear
The touch of a kind hand
My world is dark and foreboding
My breath drips with revenge
Thoughts that consume me from mornings rise and end.
I don’t dream anymore

Of secret smiles
Or an enamored glance
Lips embracing my cool cheeks
As my heart laments

I don’t dream anymore
