Carnival of Dreams

I’ve dreamt of lilies, tulips & lies
They fade from memory
I lock the hurt inside
Show you what was me

But I cry
For things I’ve never seen
& I try
To tell you what I mean

Walk you through them all
A parasol of screams
Let you watch me crawl
My carnival of dreams

I’ve seen a hundred ways a man can bleed
Not a one of them for gain
I’ll find you where you hide
Kiss your scarlet pain

"A parasol of screams Let you watch me crawl My carnival of dreams" just awesome, all of it just fits together, rhymically, lyrically, and descriptively..... I love it, brilliant images. Thank you.
