Dreaming the impossible

I dreamed the impossible,

 I dreamed you were cured,

I dreamed you were fine again,

To feel safe and reassured.

 

But I could never be so lucky,

No, not ever me,

I could never be so lucky,

I will never be that free.

 

I wanted to believe it,

I wanted it to be true,

I wanted to stay asleep,

To stop the worrying I do.

 

But I could never be so lucky,

No,not ever me,

I could never be so lucky,

I will never be that free.

 

 So I hid behind my laugh,

I hid behind a smile,

I hid secretly knowing,

I would fake my smile for a while.

It's really sad
I like it
I can completely relate to the feeling

Nice one...actually personalizing the smile would be better... " i would fake my smile for a while"

Such despair written here. so sad to feel you could never be free. Find your freedom through writing.

[oh,hey.]

suggestion...pluralize the word "smile" in the last stanza, both times, it will still rhyme well and give the piece better flow and unity. a very pleasing write. well done!
