Drifting

Drifting toward slumber watching you sleep Eyes closed preparing to take me down deep The sudden realization that you're really not here Eyes now awake that old familiar fear Wondering where you are but knowing full well you're sitting in a crack house, I hear the door bell Jumping out of bed, running toward the door roll over in bed and I hit the floor Just another nightmare as I turn to look at you or is it I wonder as I watch you untie your shoe
