Even At Night I'M Awake

Even at night, I'm awake... it has become a nightmare for an unconscious mind like mine: you appear and then disappear with a sad look, I call you, but you don' hear. When I first ran into you I couldn't wait for the minute to make you like me and afterward, consider you mine; it all began with a sympathetic, uncertain smile, perhaps too romantic for two who never met before and wanted to tell inner feelings of each other and how they felt. Even at night, I'm awake... chasing my doubts away, greeting the illusion of fantasy... that it would be gracious to me, not allowing shadows to darken or hide dreams, but rather sharing them together for our sake; even at night, I'm awake... wondering where it leads.
