Reverie

reverie, I within its grasp
and present becomes moments of moons gone
reverie, I within its grasp
and present becomes the lover once known
reverie, I within its grasp
and present becomes the pain once lived
reverie, I within its grasp
and present becomes the vision yet held
reverie, I within its grasp
and present becomes the light anew
the light anew
anew.
