A Poet's Thoughts
Dreams of White Silk and Lace
By Charles Martin Castle IV
I can't sleep
Cause I'm thinking of you
Thoughts so pure
But I can't put them into words
I stay up late thinking more
And I type them into my phone
The best that I can put them
And they make up this song
Then when I finally fall
The dreams of my desires
Fill my brain and continue
The thoughts of you
I want to see you in white silk and lace
I want to weigh down your hand with a diamond
I want to make your father give you away
I want to soothe your nightmares
And make your dreams come true
But I'm just sleeping this stuff up
So when I wake up
I need to get the wheels turning
Then I wake up
Thinking of how to make dreams true
Thoughts so pure
But I can't pay for this reality
I stay up late worrying about bills
Doing math and seeing what
