Resting In A Dream


Cold heart warm blood

Bold thoughts continuously flood

Rush in like a flowing stream

Then I woke up it was all a dream

But in this dream laid my biggest nightmare

So do I wake up or just lay there

The covers are warm the pillows are fluffed

But in this world can you dream enough

To reach the point of no return

Where the dreams hit the heart and the reality of it burns

The very core of whom you are 

Because the dream is tough but you're not that far

And on this road there are no lights

So who's to say you're at the end of the fight

You might be at the beginning or half where there

So do I dream or do I stare

At the ceilings of life protecting me from the light

The light of my imagination the light of my rights
