Surviving Dreams

Each night I lay this head upon cold sheets,
Tears fall.
I lay there, my mind racing with thoughts,
Of you.
Time has no place here, and races by,
Leaving me alone.
Within my slumber I am free,
With you.
Days turn into night turning into days,
Happiness.
The light shines for you,
Holding my hand.
Every wish fulfilled,
Smiles real.
I can gaze into the most beautiful blue eyes,
And kiss you.
I can feel the warmth of your arms,
An embrace i've waited for so long.
I can trace your lips,
And feel your heart beating ever so fast.

Every single night I go through this,
And awake in tears just as I began.
Each day gets harder to live,
Each smile harder to fake.
Do you realize how far down i've drowned?
How hard life is to hold?
Every moment of peace comes within dreams,
Even they are hard to bare when the morning comes.
I hang on to each word you say,
Feeling better about life.
Then you're gone, again--
Falling through my fingertips.

To reverse time...
To go back to that day, they day of Hypnotized.
The day of the first smile that broke these lips.
To start again, and actually give true love a chance.
