A Dream

One night I had a dream,
A dream of all a dreams,
I dreamt of death, I could not see,
Why do these feelings come over me?

I was not afraid; I did not care,
For I was dead and had no fear,
The dark was nice and so fulfilling,
The echoing sounds of someone singing.

The mournful cries and help was loud,
But I just sat upon my cloud,
I listened close, but could not see,
Oh the torture that came over me.

Take my hand I yelled aloud,
For I am here upon my cloud,
I reached and waved but still no sign,
I wonder why that I am blind?

I reached so far and fell so deep,
I wonder if I could be asleep?
I fell and fell for what seemed forever,
The mournful cries just made me shiver.

As I was about to reach the end,
I awoke with fear I need a friend,
But I was alone and I could see,
Oh the torture that was over me.

Was this reality or just a dream?
I yelled so loud – I could not scream,
The fear was great what could I do?
I just laid in my bed and thought of you.
