Dream

Ticking clocks tell me to sleep,  
My oath to darkness I must keep. 
Back to strange lands I must go, 
Where tangerine skies, ruby rivers flow. 
Back to my night keeper, 
As I sleep deeper and deeper. 
 
Will I swim with mermaids? 
Will I fly with unicorns? 
Will I visit the place where I was born? 
 
Will I see the future? 
Will I see the past? 
 
Daylight approaches, 
I must return, 
Back to my bed to be reborn.
