Just a Dream

By GirlintheBox

The cupid's arrow only skimmed your heart
And so I am just a dream.
Now you've awakened, I'm no longer real
But just a dream
I'm just a dream.
Your repressed thoughts you won't let come through
For fear that I might exist
Mounts of guilt unavoidable
For making me just a dream.
I try to live but to no avail
For I am merely a dream
I will be locked in your mind for life
I will always be your dream
I try to escape but the doors are all closing
You're pushing me farther away
But you will never be able to get rid of me
For I will come back in your dreams
The depths of your mind
My home for all time
Always haunting your dreams

    I liked both of these and think "thoughts you won't let come through For fear that I might exist" are especially witty lines. Ciao, T/S Scholar
