My life, the dream

I've always lulled myself to sleep
knowing I will dream
A planned escape to sanctuary
til sunlight can be seen
but now I lie here frightened
as the sun sets on the trees
for dreams are unpredictable
and show you what they please
I fear that I might close my eyes
and the hours that proceed
might take away the only thing
I've ever come to need
'cause now that you are in my life
you've really made it seem
that my days have become
the equivalent of a dream
