The Dream Queen


Remember me
In the low hours

When you are weak 
And have lowered
Your powerful barriers

Remember me
As that tsunami of furious fire

That once reenergized you
In those dark years

When you were alone 
And tired

Remember me
By looking at my picture

The one I sent you
As my holy scripture

Remember me when you are old 

Standing brightly as the early morning sun 

Even though your memories are getting cold

And fading away
As the hours and seconds
Run

Remember me
So I may stay

To give you comfort

Until you too are recalled
To float away
Someday

Remember me
My love 

So I can come to you

To swim
Reunited
In the Holy Sea

Remember me
As your true spiritual devotion

Who you never met in physical flesh

But one
Who wrote down 
In his pre-life road map

With his spirit guide

In another
Far away nation

I want to meet someone so extraordinary 

Someone worldwide

Who will show me such poetic wonders 

Before I once more walk 
In the heavenly tides

Of the Holy Sea

And then I met you
Mesmerised 

By all
I could see

So that's why I pray
Each and every night

So you'll remember me
As I wait here

Walking barefoot and alone
In the swirling tides

Of The Holy Sea
