Send dreams,
to close the doors
in my head.
Send dreams,
so that I don’t forget,
who I could be,
and who I’ve been.
Send dreams,
so that I cannot
ignore the truth.
Remind me
of what I’m supposed to do.
Don’t let me wander
out of view.
Send dreams,
to torment me in my sleep.
So that I will always
yearn to be
wide awake.
Don’t let me slip away
through the seams.
Show me what it’s worth,
every possibility.
If I must spend
every night of my life
like all of these,
send dreams.
