by Lost Dream

-

I am not alone

when I am by myself

sometimes I feel the night

leaning in trough my window

and watching me cry

she caresses me

with her shadowy touch

and smoothes my tears

away, away

-

as I sleep

I feel the creek of my bed

when solitude sits beside me

and watches me struggle

and she watches me dream

her pale fingers are soft

and stroking my brow

taking all my troubles

away, away

-

and sometimes in the dark

I feel the hot breath

of fear upon my face

so close to me

and she kisses me

with her lips so eager

against my yearning mouth

and she’s stealing all my hope

away, away
