Passing Dreams

I have these dreams I believe that are near. Ones of my family and friends having tears. Their standing around with much silence to hear, as the preacher announces, the one who lies here. I'm looking around to my family and friend, whispering to few , "What's going on here ?" No one acknowledges I'm even there, as I start to drift up to see me lying there. I frantically look back down at my kids, as my tears start to roll, for I know I'll be missed. I'm screaming to everyone, "look I an here." No one responds, for they can not hear. I watch my two daughters look to the sky. Hysterically crying as their asking "Why ?" I frantically reach, as I'm drifting away, screaming out loud, "let this dream go away." I wake up from sleeping , with tears down my face, thinking of loved ones and their true proper place
