Waving not Drowning

I had a dream
Florence thrashed in her sleep
And we lost her somewhere in the deep 
Pimps and nightingales singing songs so sweet 
I tried to run away to you but blooms began at our feet
Awake now, I enter in, dream state eyes closing to remember 
The details and happenings of effervescent formulaic brain waving 
Waving not drowning 
Waving not drowning
The distance placed between us is no one’s fault but mine
The thrashing floor of patience belittles our efforts, oh what a crime
Won’t you come help me and we can find somewhere to dine 
Victor, Harris, Blackfriars, places I’ve called mine
I write to a tune trapped in my head 
All bubbles and cycles until there is nothing left
Waves dashing against rocks 
Un peeling the buttons of your frocks
Diving in and turning to shore begin your waving 
Waving not drowning 
Waving not drowning 
I dream here:
Don't let them take my dreaming away from me. 
With the pills, it stops. 
With too much liquor, it stops.
