The Iron Republic Part 4: Asleep Forever

As she entered the room
Mr Barrington was deprived of thought
And words it seemed
Were lost to his befuddled mind

As they were introduced
Her touch and smile had him reduced
To a child again
Seeing the world for the very first time

In silence they sat alone
Bewitched by her charms
He shuffled his feet
And wondered how his life had turned around

It all felt like a dream
This place and its secrets
And there she was, his life was transformed
He craved to remain within this delirium

Don't pinch me
Though nothing is as it seems
Don't wake me from this dream
I want to stay right here forever

No don't pinch me
Though we are worlds apart
You're reached through and grabbed my heart
I can't see past this moment
I wish to stay asleep forever

If it be then that the seeming
Has more of beauty than the real
If only it be in dreaming
I may find the Land o'Leal
May I not continue dreaming
Weren't not cruel to wake again
Is not bliss even in the seeming
Preferable to real pain

Don't pinch me
Though nothing is as it seems
Don't wake me from this dream
I want to stay right here forever
No don't pinch me
Though we are worlds apart
You're reached through and grabbed my heart
I can't see past this moment
I wish to stay asleep forever
