A Sad Dream
Sweet Dreams my love.
Your name on my lips.
The moonlight above.
Your hands on my hips.
A happy sigh,
such a beautiful place.
I try not to cry
as a tear slides down my face.
Your arms wrap around me
as you hold me with care.
My head says this is how it should be
but my heart is still filled with fear.
Ghost from the past,
memories of pain,
telling me it won't last
and driving me insane.
Don't I deserve to be loved?
I want to shout.
Wishing on the starts above.
My heart cries out.
As I drift off to sleep,
a soft snore reaches my ears,
knowing my secrets you will keep.
For the moment, winning the battle against my fears.
I wake up in bed all alone
and at the ceiling I stare.
I realized that you were not gone
because you had never been there.
I hug the pillow tight
as the tears start to fall.
I wish with all my might
as I give in and ball.
