Dreamstate

Where were we when the night called?
    Restless in our beds
Listening to the sound of frogs
    After the rain had fallen
Wondering if this was anything more 
    Than just a dream
A few words spoken out of turn
    I didn't know you were listening
Sleepless nights thinking of stories
    To tell in the dark
Dreamless days spent waiting
    For sleep to take us back
I've been waiting in this dreamstate
   It seems like forever
Thinking over conversations
   We will never have
When I see you in the daylight
    I'll not remember
These words were spoken in sleep
    I'll be angry with you
For not having remembered

A song while dreaming

Now when you're hungry
    or sleeping, or dead
Locked in the branches away

Awake for the moment
    in fear and in dread
Wrapped in your arms away

Lost of the memory
   and falling asleep
Counting the moments
   till death do us keep

Climb the branches
     they'll keep us safe
 Climb the branches
     and no one will see  
Climb the branches
    away from the fear

Some things are not forgotten
Some things we can not forgive
The life that was taken
Was not mine to give

So we'll climb the branches
    they'll keep us safe
Stay locked in the branches away

Left with this memory
    this fear
    this regret
I wept for myself
Now nothing is left.
