Unwanted visitor in my dream
What do you want?
What does this mean
Unwanted visitor in my dream
I did not invite you
I ask you leave
Unwanted visitor in my dream
Is my mother
Dead to me
Mother dearest, mother kind
Why do you intrude my mind?
Mother dearest, mother kind
Someone else you can surely find?
Mother dearest, mother kind
Why address you with these simple lies?
Mother dearest, mother kind
Peace found here is only mine
Mother haunts me in my dreams
I can scarcely hear her screams
Mommy please come play with me
Or go silent in your sleep
Mother haunts me in my dreams
Twisting, turning in my sheets
Hours on the clock tick by
All I ask is simply why? (2/27/24)
