When the light suddenly breaks the room
and there's a feeling of unrest.

When he draws near at that moment
but then does nothing to suggest.

When the door slams shut
leaving the silence golden.

When there's nothing for comfort
except for the tissue that you are holding.

When dreams drift slowly
meandering reluctantly around your head.

When the dreams make a turn
in confusion and are nightmares instead.

When the very thought of reaching
morning is light years away.

When spending time just with yourself
could make those nightmares stay.

It is time to take stock of your life
and start at the beginning again

And there is just one question to ask
and that is when!
