Shattered dreams
Picking up the fragile shards of broken dreams
Sharp pointed edges biting deep into my heart
Numbing pain that keeps me from screaming
I cry out loud but no sound emerges
Broken and battered by life's storms
Lie dreams shattered into kaleidoscopic pieces
I try putting them back together
But they form shapes that are never what it was
I long to sleep the dreamless sleep
And know the peace that dreams never give
The starlight blinks an eternal truth
It's all over in a flash of light
I long to sleep that dreamless sleep
I long to sleep that dreamless sleep
