• I lay down and try to sleep,



    close my eyes and darkness creeps



    into my head and clouds my mind



    of thoughts of her I had hoped to find.



    I try to hold them, make them stay.



    Darkness comes faster, then fades away.



    All that's left, now stands alone-



    A shadowy figure, it's owner unknown.



    When it speaks, the words I cannot tell,



    but the voice I have heard, and know all too well.



    I drop to my knees and tremble with fear,



    "Please don't wake me, let me stay here!"



    For I know in the morning, when the lights come on,



    peace will have left me, and she too will be gone.



    But my spirits are lifted, along with my sorrow,



    as I suddenly realize...



    There is always tomorrow.
