Awake and Unafraid

Will you grace me in my dreams tonight?

Will you take me away from this world?

I love you

But I don't know who you are

Your perfect hand fits in mine

We walk along a moonlit path

Yet your face is shrouded in shadow

I long to move the veil of darkness

That gently hides your face

You stop and take me in your arms

I begin to raise my eyes

Hoping to catch a glimpse of your face

But as I look up

My eyes slowly open and you disappear

I drift back to sleep

Hoping meet you again someday

When I'm awake and unafraid

To move the veil of darkness

Separating our hearts
