gloomy rooms without a wall
gloomy rooms without a wall
a window a ceiling or a door
shadowy stairways that lead
neither up nor down to another floor
dark corridors that seem to lead
endlessly from corridor to corridor
i feel that somehow i have been
in this horrid place before
am i the doomed occupant or
just some unwelcomed visitor
what is it that i'm running from
what is it that i'm searching for
i don't seem to know at all and nor
can i be certain or even sure
that this is only a dismal dream
a dismal dream and nothing more
and yet whether i awake or sleep
what is it that i'm living for
is it not only to dream
and dream forevermore
of the one and only lovely one i love
that i will be with nevermore
