Nightmares in my dream
Every now and then, I see your face
Your voice still lingers in my head
Your presence still around in my dream
Run away and never look back, my mind says
You’ll never get too far away, just wait till I catch you again, you say
This plays on and on, like a scene in a movie
Of a hostage escaping from his abductor
In my dream
I am always running
Sometimes I’m plotting how to escape; sometimes I’m just running away
You become bigger and bigger as I run further and further
Sometimes I will get caught, sometimes I will win
Different nightmares in my dream
I still remember that moment, struggling to fight against you
I thought I was losing but thank God for the strength He gave
Finally, we left you there but yet you persisted on
Your relentless phone calls and threats continued to haunt us so
Is it bad if I say I wish you were dead?
In the morning
I always wake up petrified
Unsure of what’s real and what’s not
What if being away from you is just a dream?
What if I am still with you when I wake up from it?
I pinch myself, I walk around
But when I see her beautiful face, I’m assured
I’m awake from the nightmare in my dream
Mama said that you’re really gone
You left without leaving anything
But we’ve gotten everything
At night, I tell myself it’s all right
Because now that you’ll never be here again
There will no more nightmares in my dream
