Silver Glitter Eyeshadow

i toss my dreams in the air
letting them fall to me as i sleep

this alternate world i prefer
except that you're ever rarely there

in that distant land
where secrets i have i keep

safe from the waiting world
and waking eyes that stare and glare

*

if i were ever to lose my way
i know that you would soon appear

with glowing eyes amidst the trees
near the shining gate you call me to

i would trust and know its real
if my heart had no trace of fear

your eyes in silver glitterance
i drift to sleep and dream of you
