I had a dream last night. I was swimming in a deep, dark ocean; the shore was nowhere to be seen and the waves were pushing me back and forth. I was light as a feather to them, they tossed me like they would toss a grain of sand. And then, far ahead, I could see you.
Your fiery-red hair glowing, like a lighthouse; beckoning me. And I swam. I swam, afraid to stop; afraid of the abyss under me. Afraid of the pain the waves crushing on my chest brought to my heart. And the more I swam, the nearer I felt you.
I remember when I first saw you, dressed in your tight beige outfit, with reddish sequins forming flames at your crotch and all the way up to your breast; your hair pulled up in a flawless pony-tail, your green eyes flickering at the light of the fire in your hand. Your lips, the color of peaches, they part and let the fire in, as the people around me gasp.
It was then I knew you were the one I will love forever. It was then I knew I was just another person on another performance who admired your beauty. I knew I was invisible to you.
But I could, I can not forget you. I will not.
And here I am, dreaming – of the deep dark ocean; of the shore nowhere to be seen and the waves pushing me back and forth. I’m light as a feather to them, they toss me like they would toss a grain of sand. And then, far ahead, I see you. Your fiery-red hair glowing, like a lighthouse; beckoning me. And I swim. I swim, afraid to stop; afraid of the abyss under me. Afraid of the pain the waves crushing on my chest bring to my heart. And the more I swim, the nearer I feel you.
I wake up, gasping for air, feeling the cold needles of the waves piercing my chest and I remember when I first saw you, dressed in your tight beige outfit, with reddish sequins forming flames at your crotch and all the way up to your breast; your hair pulled up in a flawless pony-tail, your green eyes flickering at the light of the fire in your hand. Your lips, the color of peaches, they part and let the fire in, as the people around me gasp.
It was then I knew you were the one I will ever say to, without a doubt, ‘I love you.’

Die stolzen Wellen treiben mich voran,
Ich schwimm' hinaus soweit ich kann,
Denn in der Ferne liegt die Wahrheit über mich.
Ich öffne deine Augen und erkenne
Frei von Zweifeln: "Ja, ich liebe dich!"
