A Piece of Fantasy

I’ve been collecting all sorts of pieces

Stitching them up bit by bit

Memories of fantasies

Cooked up by mad men

Stories of old loonies

Singing of creeping boogies

Dancing by starlight

Brought back by daylight

I’ve been weaving together fragments of fabrications

A needle of naught

A stitch from the bewitched

Entwined to become mine

The memories that once were thine

Back when I was blooming

Back when I was simply assuming

That life would always be youthful

A moment forever lost in the time of the fledgling

I’ve been fastening back flashbacks

The pieces that once made me see

The pieces that once made me free
