I dreamt a dream I can’t recall.
I only know I dreaming wept
tears soaked my pillow as I slept.
I can’t remember it at all.
I try to penetrate the wall
What sorrows into my dreams crept,
I’ll never know I must accept.
I try to climb the wall but fall.
I cannot conjure up my dream.
There are some things I may not know,
such as the reason for my tears.
I must confess to me it seems
I have emotions I daren’t show.
Except when sleeping it appears.
