Analysis of Lost in Dreams
If before me lies the sheperds broken trail
Which devours within mine might
Of when I succeed; I am to fail
And now revealed, a shine ever so pure
Of an angel, standing in the light
Before these blind eyes whom sought to cure
As a divine precious glow, ceases her lips
And behold's the gates of heavenly white
I reach step by step, for my hands she grips
So finally, opening my eyes to redeem,
Of my life's past, yet upon this night
Bewildered I awake, to a vivid dream...
