~Dreams of the Child~
By Shino Yume

A gentle kiss across her cheek
She knows that peacefully she can sleep
Not a fear of what' might scare
But dreams beyond what she could dare
Dances dance inside her mind
Eager to know what she might find
Lives ahead that will wait for her
When the doctors find her cure
Knowing this may be the last she dreams
But not falling victim to frightful screams
Instead she dances in the light
Shutting out the darkness of fright
Running away from all her troubles
Splashing into a pond with bubbles
Friends she makes with all that's there
Happy she is, without a care
Knowing that if she can't be saved
These dreams will always be her way
And if forever she will sleep
This will be her home to keep
Here she shall not suffer from pain
And the evils of living can be slain
Eternally happy, dancing away
Forgetting she knew the light of day
