Throughout the night I toss and turn

Same dream that wakes me up warm.

You said I whimper, cried than scream

All images rushing back, was just a dream...

I shouldn't talk about it so I'm afraid to ask

For as long as I remember I know the past.

But every time this happens I see you falling

Everything is lost and my voice is calling.

Taking small steps, searching the room

Beside the door tucked on one chair

You're here, sleeping without worries

This awful dream is nothing but a scare.

The same dream on repeat is every year,

A buck taking your place and you're not here.

Why this unbearable dream comes out to taunt me,

At times when your fragile life shows signs to flee?

You show us all that you will not give up,

Another day, another year still full with hope

Holding on the thread near an inch of going over

No obstacle around will make you stop.

We make the best of now waiting for tomorrow

Life is way too precious, don't drown in sorrow

Get up and walk one foot in front of the other!

Slow down, your strength can take you further.

With the thought that you are near, still bound to us

I welcome all the dreams that might come, no fuss.

Let's make the present count, it is the greatest gift

Leave the past behind us and hope for the future's swiftness.
