Dream Within a Dream



In these days I cannot fake
From the night I do not wake
You were not wrong to imply
I fade away as time passes by
And in time it will claim me-
For night is all I see
In these dreams lies my reality
A sense of lost hope
With the days I cannot cope
For all we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream

Who is the stranger I cannot bare
Why are you standing there
As I look into the mirror
I feel my end drawing nearer
What is fiction I cannot grasp
Memories seem to fade too fast
I have no future, I have no past
Living with a tortured soul
From here where do I go
Not even heaven must know-
For all I've seen or seem
Is but a dream within a dream
