The Girl Without Dreams

I cannot imagine a world with no dreams.
Where sleep is but a vast empty darkness, and when finally a dream comes about.
It comes in the form of nightmares.

There's no blue sky with birds, not even grey skies.
In her dreams, the world is always night time.
The sky is pitch black, with no stars and without a moon.
She curls up and cries alone.
With nobody to hold hear, nobody to hear her.
For that reason, I'll love her even more.

Without a night of normal dreams, without a moment of sweetness in her sleep.
Her eyes are always teary when she wakes up.
Nobody but herself knows what she goes through everynight.

In a distant land, a boy stays up and plucks the strings of his guitar gently.
Hoping with every dose of hope in his heart.
That the night breeze might carry the resonance of his music to her ears.
So that it may soothe her and relief her of her nightmares.

He stays up everynight and prays to his dear Father in heaven.
That he may light a candle in the darkness that engulfs her.
So that finally, her dreams may brighten up.
And darkness would no longer cause her to feel cold and lonely.
He loves her, but does she know?
Does she love him?
