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.
