Bitter Aftertaste



Bitter Aftertaste



Dreaming takes me there
where the Goddess dances free
leaving the nightmares



To dance on and on
becoming one with my soul
beauty resides here



slowly it happens
I begin to miss the beat
tripping and falling



down to rest my head
once more on my pillow soft
awakening me



My souls on fire
passions dared to dream at night
fade in the cruel dawn



nothing left to me
but the bitter aftertaste
and no mouthwash here



where the people are
wake my goddess wake us now
forget these nightmares



when I wake you sleep
too much pasta late at night
my days burn my heart



until I dream you
and can leave this world and no
bitter aftertaste
