A Beautiful Dream

I am living a beautiful dream

Dancing around on cloud nine

But I wonder

Will this dream end

If I were to open my eyes would

It all come to an end

and that is all it will ever amount to be

is a beautiful dream?

I wonder if I were to open my eyes will it

start a nightmare?

I wonder and I wander through this heaven

that I have created, holding my breath

for it all to disappear

And replace it with something old

and familiar to come back.

I wait for the hell that I use to live in to come back

and destroy my little bit of happiness

take it all away from me, like it

always does. I'm waiting for it

to remind me that I am the monster that hides

underneath little kids beds and waits for them to fall asleep

Where I can give them the nightmares that I myself experience.

No one can tell when their Heaven will become a Hell,

or when their Fantasy will become a Reality and

destroy everything in its wake.

If that is true then I never want to open my eyes to the pain of reality.

I want to keep experiencing this feeling and I don't

want to ever come back down to Earth from this Heaven.
