What Answer Could a Dream Give

Soft kisses and light touches
Not from a lover
But only the blankets,
Wrapped around you

Sleepy eyes
With sleepy hair
And no one there
To run their fingers across your face

A hot breath
And a hot tear
Jerk you back to life
Away from a land of nothingness

You force yourself awake
Still sleepy
Always tired
Especially in this daytime nightmare

Why does this life continue
Why does it break you
Answers that no dream
Could ever supply
