Here, sleepless I dream.
Wide awake my eyes stay shut
To the pain I seek.
I must admit,
There was love once in my heart,
But I fear what I don’t know,
As it seemed to seep out.
Always, I come around,
To my old lover’s embrace,
Fear and dark thought that roam my mind,
These friends who never seem amazed.
But if it happens,
If I suddenly pry my eyes open,
Remember I once wished
My heart awoken.
