Storms, Hopes, and Dreams
She set out full of hope to take on
The sun rising on a spotless day
Suddenly her foot slipped and she stumbled
Lost in a surprising and merciless fray
She turned to leave, there was no exit
One had to battle through to escape
Fear and stress scaled the walls of her heart
Desperately, on bloodied knees she knelt to pray
She through herself upon the foe
But it was invisible for alas within
Lost and confused she felt as she slumped
Knowing that this one, alone, she wouldn't win
She knew she could dial your number
Your cheery voice attended to her plea
And even if you weren't by her side
From her worries you always set her free
Through a lonesome and tiresome day
You were her hero with her feeble tries
As you encouraged her to keep on
Amidst her weary groans and painful cries
The sun peeked out from the clouds
She threw her sword at the dark veil
The strength your voice brought enabled her
When at first she had been so frail
Her heart filled with joy at the new day
Filling the land with light before tear-filled eyes
She turned ever grateful as you
Took flight into the open brilliant skies
"Dream a lil dream of me," she whispered.
"One day you'll open your eyes to find it true
The sun will be shining on my dark hair
As you awaken to find me lying next to you."
