synchronized slumber

By knightmirror

dreams
laced with nightmares
your past
hibernates with your fears
and when you close your eyes
you'll be able to see
how to silence
the screams
inside

if there could be a day
when i would choose to change
today would be that day
and it's safe to say

we were created
to create
so just remember
to be cautious

with what you say

because little do we know

our words are graced with the power
to build and destroy

so go ahead
and make your choice
and don't forget
that you have a voice

so speak up
and don't be afraid
chances are
there's been a time or two we've felt the same
it's ok if
you fall in your minds abyss
believe it or not
it's where you can find the greatest gifts

communication is the key
to unlocking the doors to understanding
