Crying in My Sleep

I cried out for help And was left behind So many times So I learned to smile in the day time
Tears only fall while I’m sleeping Light can’t shine on my sorrow I’m keeping it special Like a gift just for you
I only cry when I’m sleeping I spent years walking around Pleading every night at the mirror Please someone show me the exit
I cry in my sleep every night Shoving it down, stirring it up Hearing me shout, burning it out Finally finding my home
Tears only fall while I’m sleeping Light can’t shine on my sorrow I’m keeping it special Like a gift just for you
I still cry in my sleep The place where I see you The place where you come still The place where I dream we will be whole
I cry while I sleep For the moments we miss The uncaressed lips The gulf we both know sits in our midst
Tears only fall while I’m sleeping Light can’t shine on my sorrow I’m keeping it special Like a gift just for you

I thought I would give a try at a song of sorts. I don’t know how well things ever turn out when I actually conceptualize them as songs, but some of them start out that way. What can I say.
