I closed my eyes
And drifted off into the night
HeadingĀ out of this world
When my mind took to flight.
Entering way into outer space
Wondering if all was real
Or was it all just a dream.
Maybe things are not always
Completely how they seem.
I had this adventure in my mind
Please, Mr Sandman, come with me
Who knows what we will find.
Tomorrow it shall keep
For now I live in fantasy
As I fall into a deep sleep
Inside a world of make believe.
So thank you, Mr Sandman,
You took me so far away
Then returned me by the morning
To the reality of a brand new day.
Spring has many calling signs
Like flowers and birds and sun
Or getting home to find
Thirty cars at your neighbor's for fun

For every spring and summer
The family across the street
Plays mariachi louder than a speaker
With their entire extended family to greet
The car problem is not helped by the house being in a cul de sac...
Thinking of you
The night to get through
Thoughts, they are confused
They have consumed
My mind
So many they are not defined
Torcher
So unkind
Why do they, have to remind
The day, of your decline
The day, you left mankind
The day, of leaving me behind
Ending my time
With my partner in crime
Midnight (awake)
At nighttime
In the light shine
Shadows
Not a figment of mind
A sign
That I find
You are here
Can still hear
When I whisper
" my dear "
Midnight (awake)
Laying here
Holding back the tears
Absences of you
Being near
Years
Of waiting
For you to
Magically reappear
Midnight (awake)
Hoping the door opening
To my death is
Near
!!
Midnight, awake
