Wishing

by Me   Dec 6, 2005


I had a dream
That the one I love would die
The thought of this ever happening
Just makes me want to cry

This has happened before
Four years ago now
I dreamt my mother's death
And it happened, I really don't know how

I dreamt of her funeral
A couple of days before she died
Then a week later, it happened again, this time for real
Right in front of my eyes

That day was so horrible
I had to re-live that dream
Except the pain was so much worse
It was pushed over the extreme

I had predicted her death
I had seen her fate
But I didn't do anything about it
I was too late

And now I have seen the one I loves death
I really don't think I can cope
It's happened once, so why not twice?
I am starting to give up hope

'Don't worry, it's just a dream' she says
'It won't become true'
I reply, 'it doesn't matter, its still the thought
Of anything ever happening to you'

I can't help but worry
I can't just not cry
Thinking what could happen, what would I do?
If she was to die

If my dream became reality
I don't know what I'd do
I wouldn't be able to function
I don't know if I'd be able to pull through

I'd be such a mess
If she was to die
I wouldn't sleep, eat or talk
All I could do is cry

I really hope it doesn't happen
I'm hoping, wishing with all my heart
That I don't have to re-live that day
If I do my heart will break apart

It was bad enough
Just having that dream
Hard enough, to pretend I'm ok
After everything I've seen

Thinking about what could happen
Each and everyday
Hiding my pain, hiding my fears
Trying to believe what you say

I'll try and forget about it
But no matter what I do
It will still be in the back of my mind
Still worrying about you

I'll wish everyday
That you don't end up like my mum
I'll try to be happy
No matter how worried I become

I couldn't live without
Not even for one day
I pray to god, your right, it's just a dream
I guess what I'm trying to say..
Is I'd miss you if you were gone..
