Dozing Off

The sun's too bright

It hurts my eyes

I cannot read

I cannot dream

My heart is aching

Hands are shaking

It's getting hard to breathe

Getting older

Growing colder

Wake me up when the day is over

But the moon still shines

The stars align

The valley is soft with clover

Friends surrounding

Love astounding

I fear my heart will burst

Softly dozing

Between the roses

My heart no longer cursed
