sleep doesn't rest


my eyes are closed.
but I see what I feel.
It's not you.
with all that i know and don't want
and the images of what should never be
I see things and fear what I've lost
In my sleep there is no rest
and dreams don't give in
the haunt with my ghost and your name
I live in thoughts of love
and pain
how it hurts,
sleep doesn't rest
and when wake finds me
I'm lost once again contemplating my pain
my dreams hurt my reality.
