Dreams Poem by Aly Grey

Dreams
You walked into my life with a smile that blinded me of your faults,
Almost seemed as though you were perfect and things couldn’t be better,
But the calm of the storm was over when I said” I love you”
There was when I made a huge mistake,
So aware that your love was fake,
I couldn’t even try to fantasize,
It was made known to me that I was living a lie.
I couldn’t find any reason,
For me to continue breathing,
I’ve cried and made promises that we both knew I couldn’t keep,
I dread getting in bed and falling asleep,
To dream a dream that stinks of you,
Tomorrow after will reek of you.
My tears of scarlet blood stain my face with pain,
There isn’t a way that I’ll remain sane,
Losing my sanity drenched in humanity,
Lost everything soulless I’m empty.
A dream I dread I have nightmares instead,
I hate the living and envy the dead,
I dream of a meadow; NO! my grave,
Or am I burnt and perished into the waves?
I dream of us; NO! I dream of me standing over your dead body,
Oops I meant you over my dead body,
People who pass stop and stare,
They’re in complete awe,
My dreams spell nightmare,
I don’t want them anymore!
