Sweet Nightmare

Under the sapphire skies; nature's tapestry,

in sun crisp paths where phantoms grin, abide,

I'm haunted by the iridescent thoughts and memory,

where sweet nightmares smile and fervor did reside.

Your honey wisps under the watch of towering trees,

and garden dress under the azure skies,

The strawberry voice struck with soft melodies,

enchanted my poor unsuspecting eyes.

But now your beauty steals away the inner light;

A smitten shadow cast over my wares;

and shrewd pain, like sting of frostbite

forever cursed by sweet nightmares.
