Dream Fast
Every night I, crawl in my bed
The lights are off so, it’s too dark to see
I slip under the covers and,
Hope to find my goddess lying next to me …
I know her so well,
Yet,
I don’t know her name
I fall asleep at night,
And,
The dream is always the same
I reach out toward her,
To,
Feel her warm embrace
I get so near and close,
Then,
She disappears with grace
I wake up in the morning,
Her,
Face becomes just a memory
I’ll search for her to-day,
I’ll,
See what’s there for me
I walk through the streets
I,
Push my way through the crowd
But how can I find her,
If,
I’ve no name to call out loud
The beauty in my dreams torments me so much
I want her to hold me but there’s no way to touch
I know I’ll love again when I dream
But my waking life is torture, or so it seems
I’ll know I’ve found her when her eyes meet my sight
Until that day, I’ll dream every night
