All In A Dream

• If I die tonight and do not awake,
• what memories with me will I take?
• In my last hour did I do the right things,
• did I secure the great peace that heaven only brings?
• I wished "goodnight" to the ones I love,
• and asked for help from God above.
• "Sir or Madame if can hear me now,
• answer me this, please, tell me how!?"
• "This one that I love, she know not how great,
• so simple to tell her but not in this state."
• "Please God! I ask you, what should I do,
• how can I tell her my love is so true?"
• She is the angel I think of all day,
• and when I sleep she goes not away.
• Behind closed eyelids, she waits for me,
• she fly's through my head, setting me free.
• Together we dance to sweet songs unknown,
• Yet sadness strikes, for soon I'll be alone.
• I hold her hand tightly knowing soon we shall part,
• opening my arms I show her my heart.
• Seeing her reflection she smiles up at me,
• it is not a smile of can't be, but a smile of some day, maybe?
• Opening her wings, she fly's far away,
• Signaling the start of another new day.
• I open my eyes and think of her,
• thinking how differently I wished things were.
• Again to God I ask, "why have put us so far away,
• why in my dreams could I not stay?"
