Restless

I want to close my eyes. Drift off to slumber in my thoughts. You have been approaching lately. I wonder if you know it.
Do you? Will you answer this question tonight? I want to hear your voice. Tell me about the other side. Do you feel safe? Can I see your face. Be my angel.
I need time to process what my eyes saw that day. That long, somber day. Crying in the distance. I wanted to leap out that window so many times.
I try to imagine the pain you felt, before and after. The sweetest decline. The sounds were hollow and the room was dark, then light, then dark again. I fell to the ground in a heap. And all I could do was weep.
It really should have been me. You belonged here and didnt even know it. Are you okay? Please tell me in my dream tonight. Tell me all those things I've been asking for so long.
Or sing me a song.
Tell me I belong.
Make me strong.
Tell me I wasnt wrong.
Forever is too long.
But I have my dreams.
