"Until my eyes open"

I don't want to wake from this sleep that I'm in.
This sleep I'm in
Protects me from the hurt of yesterday
And surely the pain that would face me today.
This sleep I'm in
Makes me feel like you're still here
And it would only be until my eyes opened
that I would realize that you were never there.
A dreamless darkened sleep
where my consciousness cease
and my war is at peace
and love doesn't have to be deceased.
This sleep I'm in
doesn't remind me that I can no longer hold her
because sheep took over
and days awake without her is simply colder.
This sleep I'm in
warms my nights with fantasy sin
and a remembrance of lovin'.
This sleep I'm in
Is all I have until my eyes open.

  1. After reading this one, it reminds me of all the hurt and pain I endured on Fabers Road while growing up. Still I dream of that place every night..." Protect me from the hurt of yesterday" Yes you said it right, it could have not been said better. Gosh!
