nightmares


Night after night 

Dream after dream

I wake up next to nothing that I can see.

I close my eyes one more time

There you are once again you're mine. 

It tortures me it tricks me to wake up every day

Thinking what we had never went away.

Wishing I could tell you 

All I wish I could say.

Maybe if I did it'd make you want to stay.

I miss you so much 

I need you now.

You're gone for good and I'm wondering how.

Why did this happen 

How could this be

That the love of my life just up and left me.

No reasons for going

No farewells goodbye. 

The last thing I told you came from the tears rooling from my eyes.

Forever my heart will hold a place for you. 

Forever will I pray that my dreams could come true.
