Of Dreams and Nightmares
In the night, I feel the coldness embrace me.
I reach for my love, but she is gone.
I turn and turn trying to sleep,
As tears wash away that rest
Anguish consumes my desire.
What hurt does this night bring?
I am awake, but I dream.
Dreams of touches and caresses,
Whispers of fantasy.
My loving dreams become my nightmares,
Passionate hopes turn to despair.
I try to reach out to others
To find they turn away.
Only in everlasting sleep will I find no torment.
It is my heart that will not let me slumber.
It says dreams can come true,
If I only truly believe.

Whispers of fantasy.
My loving dreams become my nightmares,
Passionate hopes turn to despair.

To find they turn away.
Only in everlasting sleep will I find no torment.
It is my heart that will not let me slumber.

If I only truly believe.
