Dreams Underfoot: UnquietDreams' Dark Whimsy

"My body turns
And yearns for a sleep that won't ever come
It's never over
My kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder
It's never over
All my riches for her smiles
When I've slept so soft against her
It's never over
All my blood for the sweetness of her laughter
It's never over
She is the tear that hangs inside my soul forever"



-- "Lover, You Should’ve Come Over," Jeff Buckley


"She is the tear that hangs inside my soul forever," is one of the most luscious sentences ever written.
 
“With the earth and the sky and the water, remade, like a casket of gold. For my dreams of your image that blossoms a rose in the deeps of my heart.”

-- W.B. Yeats, "The Rose in the Deeps of His Heart"
