My Ongoing Exploration of Earth

Dreams

​This is a poem I wrote in 2004. I imagine all of my poetry set to music, but I am rarely able to come up with my own tunes. I imagine parts of this one to Boulevard of Broken dreams by Green Day.

It's getting late and I can't sleep
When I hold still I can hear no peep
My mind is stuck in overdrive
But I'm so tired I barely feel alive

As I lie on my bed
Visions of distant lands dance through my head
But I know that it's all fake
And these dreams are just here keeping me awake

Can't fall asleep 'cause I'm so wired
Been working all day and now I'm tired
Please help me fall asleep tonight
Sometime before first sunlight
Take these dreams away

Dreams, dreams, go away
Come again some other day
Leave me alone and let me be
Leave me alone and set me free

As I lie on my bed
Visions of distant lands dance through my head
But I know that it's all fake
And these dreams are just here keeping me awake
Take these dreams away

Can't fall asleep 'cause I'm so wired
Been working all day and now I'm tired
Please help me fall asleep tonight
Sometime before first sunlight
Take these dreams away
