Fantasy

That I could form ideas inside your mind,
That I my fancies and realities to your soul describe,
That you would understand my plight,
My beautiful mistake.

He bewitches me, casts a spell as  you say.
And yet, mamma, I wish not from such sleep to wake.
I wish not reality to see.

Can one live forever in a fantasy?
Can a dream become one's world, one's life?
He is mine.
My world, my life, my very heart.

I do not care if I stay in this coma.
I do not wish to wake from wondrous sleep.
And yet, Mamma, I feel you shaking me to consciousness.
I feel you rousing me from slumber.

Do not wake me from my happiness.
