As I lay me down to sleep....

That is when the
                                    tears come, I begin to weep.

Looking back on what the day has brought,

The pain comes again, and like it I not,

My world today is so
                                    full of hate,

Surrounded by evil, and sin but wait...

In the distance I hear a sweet song

It is that girl's voice
                                    I've waited for so long.

I open my eyes, and look around,

Searching for her beautiful face, her melodious sound.

I turn
                                    around, in the wrong direction,

Trying so hard to make a connection

Between what I see and what I hear,

Suppressing all my excitement
                                    and all my fear.

I
                                    finally pass through the mist,

And before my eyes, I see the girl for whom
                                    I have wished.

In a world of trust, kindness, and love,

I turn my gaze to her beautiful face above.

A beautiful face
                                    just as bright as the sun,

Have I this prize truly won?

My hope of being with her, it has come true,

And I say, "This
                                    is a whole new place for me and you."

But how can this world really exist.

For hate rules us all with
                                    an iron fist.

"Wake up," I tell myself, "I must be dreaming."

"There is no way I can get her," I start screaming.

I must forget
                                    the foolish and childish mentality,

Because my dream of being with her will
                                    not become a reality.
