Dreams Discovered

Post by Eric » Fri Jun 03, 2011 6:45 am

I woke myself from crying ... my dreams tore me apart
I wish someone could figure out .. help these dreams depart
What it is that I was seeing .... had me shaking to the bone
It had reminded me of some times ... some bad times I have known
I could not stop the running ... I'm not as fast as in my youth
Not sure of what I was running from ... still searching for its truth
My heart was pounding so dam hard ... I could not bare to speak
I felt the weight was pushing down ... my legs had grown so weak
Why do we always revert ... to old habits and mistake?
Why does it always shine its face .. while I am not awake?
I tend to fear what s in my mind ... when I close my eyes
When they are open I can fight ... and fend off my old lies
But when I sleep my dreams discover... things I have tried to hide
I seem to erase it from my dreams .. how I am the man who tried
Am I to weak to ovecome ... these thoughts that haunt my mind?
Are these troubles in my dreams, and in my wake affined?
