Dream Come TrueA Poem by Somber EyesI fall away, I'm falling down on my knees I can't face the day, I feel it like a disease Racing through my blood, infecting my heart Eaten from the inside, I'm falling apart My eyes see, but everything is unclear And my vision slowly fades as you walk closely near I can't tell, but I think that maybe you feel it too You feel the way about me, the way I feel about you
I can't think, I can't sleep I'm in it way too deep And I don't think I'll make it out alive I don't know, I can't say I don't really think you'll stay I don't think I have a chance, but I must try Try to make you mine
I open up, I open up my mouth I try to speak my mind, but the words don't come out I'm left standing there speechless, looking like a fool Standing there lifeless like a broken old tool But you don't laugh, you don't walk away You just stand there smiling with a grin on your face Then you lean in and you whisper in my ear That I can let it all out, that I have nothing to fear
Such a relief, I can finally relax The pressure that I felt no longer breaking my back I can't find the words, but still you put me at ease Now I'm praying that you mean it, and it's not just a tease I don't think that I can take it if you're playing a game When you lead me on and make me think that you feel the same So please tell me that you mean what you say That you really do feel it and you won't walk away
I can't think, I can't sleep I'm in it way too deep And I don't think I'll make it out alive I don't know, I can't say I don't really think you'll stay I don't think I have a chance, but I must try Try to make you mine
So now it's time, at least that's what it seems Still I think that soon I'll wake up and see it was just a dream A vision of the night, nothing less and nothing more Erased from my memory when my feet hit the floor And I'll go on, yeah I'll go on with my day I'll carry on with things in the usual way And hope I have the same dream tonight when I fall asleep The lord can have my soul but my heart is yours to keep © 2012 Somber Eyes |
