" Dreams Cast Along Icy Seas "

Dreams cast along the icy seas
Where fragmented thoughts crisp in silent smiles
Invisible and soothing to the soul
The haunting spector brushed the hair from my eyes
Melted my heart and drifted back into my dreams
A lifted mirror with images reversed
Subtlties and similarities that endear
The glass shatters, but reinvents itself
Still as beautiful, twice as sharp

Charismatic and convinced a lesson was learned
A joy was lived and loved and will be
An overturned jug with a hidden pearl beneath
Fingers too slow to capture as it rolls
And relinquishes itself again to the sea
Don't wake me
Don't despair
Created as immortals in dreams
Still held fast in golden eyes

awesome! i like many parts
my favorite part:
"The glass shatters, but reinvents itself
Still as beautiful, twice as sharp"

wow, i just realized that this song made me think of blue and ice so much that i subconsciously put on Norther because they do the same for me. unless i forgot and it actually was intentional... either way COOL!

and hey, i added the two last parts of Sailing North just before posting here. its atually the climax of the song.

That's cool. I was trying to get that feel right at the beginning, but didn't keep it consistent. Glad to know that you picked up on that. lol The lines you liked were from images I got from an antique window pane falling from my barn and breaking by the driveway. I thought about trying to put it back together so that's where that came from.
That's pretty cool it subliminally inspired you.
Thanks for letting me know about your piece, too.
