I awake
From the dream
That horrid dream
You were there
You were dead
I laid my head
On your unmoving chest
And I wept
Distraught and depressed

He shot you
While I just watched
I couldn’t move
Not until he was gone
I ran to you
But when I got there
You were already gone
It started to rain
But I didn’t care
Nothing mattered anymore

I sit up in bed
And I reach for my phone
I have to hear your voice
I see the time
Three AM
It doesn’t matter
I have to see you
So I call
And you answer
I tell you of my dream
And you come over

I get out of bed
And I run outside
There you are
Without a scratch
I hug you hard
And you hug me back
We get it your car
You smile at me
My favorite smile


I can’t help it
I become lost
In your eyes
I forget of my dream
I forget about everything
There is only me and you
You and me
Our hands interlocking
Our smiles matching
Your eyes
Poring into mine
All my worries
Depart from me


I don’t care
That he doesn’t approve
He can deal with it
He wont hurt you
He wont hurt me
We will fight together
Against him
We will prevail
I know we will
The fight has begun
And we are ready

I want to go
I want to leave your presence
I won’t take the way
You make me feel
I won’t give in
To your bribes
I don’t need those things
To survive

I won’t be a worldly person
I shall not let it be so
Your bribes will not work on me
No they shall not
You dwell upon material things
I dwell upon the opposite
I care about my soul
Being materialistic shall set me back

So I set possessions
Out of my mind
Those earthly things
Mean nothing
I am sorrowful
For those who dwell
Upon those things
So easily taken away
To dwell upon those things
Would put me in a melancholy mood
They disappear quickly
But my Savior
Shall forever stay

It is dark
And it is cold
This feels all wrong
I don’t like this

There you are
Your stare fills
My heart with pain
And makes me think

Why were you
Not there for me?
Why did you act
Like you cared?

You never did
Yet you still try to hide
What you feel inside
And I ask you why

I know the truth
Do you know
That I pretend every time
I see your face?

When I am with you
I am a different person
I hate lying to you
But what will happen if I don’t?

Will you yell at me
Once again?
Or will you
Hurt me again?

You see
I never know
What you
Will do next

It scares me
And though I try
To hide my fright
Others know of it


They urge me
To stand up to you
But if I do
What will you do?

I feel as if
I am a mouse
And you
Are a lion

I can’t escape
And I can’t fight back
You are the predator
And I am the prey

I shift my gaze
From you to a Light
The Light
My Light

The Light grows
And It grows
Until It swallows
Up the darkness

You are
No more
Its just me
And my Light
