But A Dream

But A Dream

A Story by Backlight Burner

When the day comes I sleep not alone, but next to my true love, will it be but a dream? 
Shall i always wake to the sounds of screams that pierce the night? 
If it should be a dream I have it will be nothing but bliss for reality has had its chance, come to me sleep.
My dearest friend, my love. 
You and you alone can take the dark shadows away, for when I close my eyes it is only us and you my sweet show such love. 
I'm told to open my eyes to the truth, but why must it be so? 
Can I not dream just a little more? 
Let the gentle touch of insanity touch my soul and wash away the frightened nights and days of life, let me dream but for just a moment more. 
For my heart can not take the truth, it will just tear me apart! 
So be a dear babe and close the door, turn off the lights and let me sleep away my life.

Author's Note

Backlight Burner
Sometimes I do not wish to wake-up... Didn't plan on ending this on such a sad note, but I think it is best this way, please do give me your opinion on that.

I am not sure if I should have put this as a poem or not, let me know what you think though, Thank You :)
