Shes the Key

You seem to ignore me and all I have to say.
I can't help it so I'll tell you anyway.
Life before you had turned me so numb.
There were no smiles, no laughs only sadness would come.
My days were empty and were often spent alone.
The demons constantly reminding me that I'm on my own.
Coming to terms that my heart no longer had a beat.
Looking at the facts I knew I was incomplete.
Locked in a world that was long dead to me.
Crying on the inside cause to the lock there was no key.
To this living hell I had been enslaved.
Praying for a miracle I longed to be saved.
Time went by and the days turned into night.
I gave up on hope I knew I was losing this fight.
Then one day it was much like the rest.
She came to me and placed her ear upon my chest.
It made me unsure cause no beat could be heard.
She said I'm your miracle I give you my word.
I opened my eyes to awake from a dream.
It felt so real or so it seemed.
The girl from my dream I knew her from some place.
I recognized her voice but I didn't see her face.
The seasons changed from summer to fall.
I started to doubt my dream maybe there's no miracle after all.
Then one evening it was late October.
I was messaging an old friend and invited her over.
We met at a store that was about a mile away.
I got in with her so nervous I didn't no what to say.
We talked for hours it all went so great.
Time flew by and the evening turned late.
I got to share this before I can write more.
I've never told a soul about this before.
An hour or so after she left is when it dawned on me.
It was my dream it was her face I didn't see.
Life with her has been a romantic fairytale.
We've been up we've been down trying times designed to make us fail.
Miles now find there way in between.
I'll never give up after the love I seen.
Your my proof that dreams come true.
I'll do my best to fulfill your dreams to.
I'll do all I can day in and day out.
Cause life with you is what its about.
You have breathed new life into my soul.
From incomplete you made me whole.
Only with you is when the demons seem at bay.
Your the only one that makes me truly feel OK.
