• Sleepless nights.
    Restless dreaming.
    Trembling in the darkness as the visions keep on seeping.
    Wake up in a cold sweat
    Silent screams seep from my mouth and whisper down my neck
    I turn away
    Ashamed
    Lower my head
    And close my eyes again
    A single tear falls onto my sheets
    And I realize what this world is giving to me
    Every ounce of happiness
    Stolen by another's grasp
    Every ounce of hope
    Shifting from one hand to another
    Leaving me behind with nothing
    Again
    As always
    I turn and grasp for something close
    I find nothing.
    A picture on my phone
    Is the only thing in my reach
    The only thing to calm me down
    That face
    I'm growing dependent of
    Those eyes.
    Staring into my soul
    And for once.
    I enjoy it.
    being stared at.
    As I stare back.
    I'm not running from you.
    You can't break me down
    If there's one thing I hang on to.
    That gets me through the night.
    Your voice keeps me from breaking
    Even if I wanted to
    Every night they come
    The dreams and the nightmares
    All in one
    As I lay there and beg for sanity
    Nothing comes
    Still
    In the back of my head
    A fear is constantly growing
    What if I'm not the one?
    The one you think I am....
    What if what I am....
    Isn't what you are expecting...
    And what if....
    This Highlander...
    Isn't the one....
