Nightmares
Dare to be Rare,
Compare Nowhere,
It's okay if they Stare.
Is there anybody there?
Is there anyone anywhere?
Is there anything you wish to share?
I tried looking elsewhere,
They didn't seem to care,
It didn't seem fair.
A dream or nightmare,
Peering through a blank stare,
Unaware, I see the masks they wear.
Dare to be rare,
Compare nowhere,
Time has come to be a pair.
We are everything,
Everywhere,
We are everybody breathing air,
We declare an end to the despair.
We are sorry for the cross you bare,
The dreams that gave quite a scare,
We needed you to be aware.
We needed you to really care,
To repair the tare somewhere,
Caused by psychological warfare.
Dare to be rare,
Compare nowhere,
Life is a love affair.
