The Unconscious Heart

The longing feeling isn't there as strong
I can handle it better now
My mind hasn't wandered too much in long
So why when I woke up this morning
Do I vividly remember dreaming of you?
of us going to the movies and hanging out
and why did it hurt after...?
Why did it put my stomach in knots
Like when we first were getting to know each other
The mind is a confusing world
Like an ocean of the brain
Just when you think something is gone and old
It gets washed back in followed by the rain
The softness of my pillow, holding my heart
Blankets covering me allowing nothing to escape
I can't control what I dream about
Or what my unconscious mind may want
In my dreams I'm doing everything I can
To keep you near or get you to hear me
But it's the same outcome every time
and I wake up disappointed.
I know I changed too late
and realized at the wrong time
It's true I'd rather dance with you but..
When I awake what's true is true
I'd talk to you but in my dreams
My voice never works
I made my choice anyway.
Sweet dreams world, good morning dreams.
