& here it comes.
another restless eve.
I won't dare shut my eyes tonight,
because the second I do,
you'll be there.
it'll be just like before. 
you'll hold me, and we'll talk,
but heres the catch;
in the dream, no one else can see you.
you're not really there.
just like our relationship.
overflowing with lies 
& empty promises.
my friends hated you, 
I pretended not to care.
they all warned me about you,
a warning I easily overlooked.
I loved you more than anything,
I emptied my heart for you,
I became someone else for you,
but you didnt seem to mind.
& now you're nothing but a monster.
much like the ones that used to lurk
deep under my bed at night,
but daddy can't save me now.
you've got a hold on my leg,
and you're dragging me under.
under.
under.
under.
gone.
