Dream

I dream this lonely dream

It’s always as empty as it seems

There always the same

I sit in shame

Nobody’s there

It’s like a nightmare

Somebody wake me up

Pour cold water on me out of a cup

I twist and turn

I long and yearn

I need help

Didn’t you hear my yelp?

It’s so lonely here

Somebody calm my fear

Just wake me!

Shake me!

I’m having a nightmare,

And you’re not here
