Cat Heaven


In the dream that awakened me,
you had come and taken me to a sea of stars.
the cat stood in the flowers, two ears above.
and the ground that was under me
was holding me so wonderfully on a bed of leaves
and you were there with me and we were free.
everything we saw was beautiful and strong and i knew we belonged.
then the birds came and carried us to the sky
and married us on a bed of stars
where i was always yours and you were mine.
and in the long black eternity i loved you so perfectly in the words of clouds,
like a bird sings to his flowers and i was heard.
everything i saw was everything i'd want
and this world had just begun to live.
don't wake me up.
i can't wake up from this.
everyone was forgiven, made hopeful,
made living, made winning tonight.
so captain please consider me.
let the boats deliver me when i close my eyes.
drive captain drive.
it's time for everything to be perfect.
for everything to stop hurting.
tonight. don't wake me up.
