Nightmare

My nightmare is not a just a dream,
it haunts me as I'm awake and I feel like I can scream.

Not because I'm afraid of a monster or death,
but because if I loose you I would loose my breath.

And all that we've ever done and gone through,
I hold in my heart and understand it to be true.

Not a blur or lost in confusion,
I'm afraid of our lives conclusion.

Afraid to never see our child grow up day after day,
afraid to never kiss you and that you will stray.

Fearful that you will forget me and find another,
or that you will be angry through life as a single mother.

I've always wanted to be there for you and not myself,
hoping you will not put your love for me on the shelf.

This is my nightmare that I dream about when I'm awake,
I'm trying to win back your love cause there's so much at stake.
