Dreams



You come to me within the night,
Showing myself in endless flight.

You say to me what could be right,
Snowing me what I feel might.

You leave to me within my sight,
Showing me towards the light.

You have left me to soar to height,
Showing me in a world of fright

Dreams my dreams,
You have left me in feelings of plight.
