Close Your Eyes

Close your eyes,
for one simple moment feel free.
Close your eyes,
remember these words that flow within me.
Enchanted I scream
and cold mornings
vanish for an eternity.

Alone in solitude,
this day shall not,
will not I scream.
This day will not confine you.
Close your eyes and remember these words,
i pray you,     listen,
in these times I will remind you.

Close your eyes,
tears gone cold.
Alow this day not an eternity,
alow this moments dream a reality.
One single moment this day,
in heart you shall not feel old
I pray you believe.
Close your eyes
and feel free.
