THE DREAM


Awaken from horrible dreams
Where my voice is weak, so my soul screams
My boys, my mom, and you were there
A doctor man I met tried to share

That I could be his in his arms
He wanted all my eccentric charms
I just wanted to be alone
For all these people to leave my home

I'd push them out the door one by one
Then via the back way they'd come
To yell at me and see my distress
They all lived here as a guest

I couldn't take caring for them all
They wanted me to give up and fall
Into the craze that I was in
I wanted them to leave so peace could begin

Noah broke the front door apart
Josh was sadden in his heart
My mom just went and got some booze
You and the doctor man fought to lose

The woman who loves too much
His arms around me kissing and such
Then you came up from behind
And said this girl is mine

Total chaos in my late sleep
So deep in it this dream did creep
Into this body alone in bed
Opened doors closed in my head

Until I awaken in this mist
Where frightening thoughts exist
As I pushed my family out of my life
And a forceful doctor would take me as a wife

To let me see his help I'd get
In this fearful frightening noisy fit
Where he would prove I'd be okay
If he were mine to send you away

Then there you stood behind my back
As calamity of sleep would attack
This senseless nightmare from which I was awaken
And by you today I feel forsaken

Because you didn't stop by before work
Kiss me awake before dreams lurk
Into my sleep where all so lost
Because, I presume, it's too much cost

To come to me for five minutes
Say you love life with me in it
It's too bad for me because of you
When I need, you can't come through

Or when I ask you to fill a want
I am lost in dreams that haunt
My conscious mind for another hour
As I sit and write of the power

Of family, boyfriends taunting me
In dreams of all of them I tried to be free
My home of them to replace
By you coming to my room to kiss my face

To let me know you made the stop
Before this dream of you was chopped
In my head, into a million scenes
That came because you have the means

To keep me safe here in my bed
By kissing my soft smooth forehead
So nightmares turn into a fairytale
And your girl's sleep is all well

Not an infirmary of disease
Where you choose not to please
My one request of you last night
That you kiss me in this daylight.
