Nightmares, horrormares, things unknown.
Shadows and monsters and silent screams.
Swirling transient creatures unshown.
Dark lights and darker places and darkling dreams.
Dreamcatcher, Sleepwatcher, please protect me.
From monsters and goblins; yes even these.
I know nothing, feel nothing from these dreams,
Except terror and longing and things that haunt me.
Pain of the moment and guilt of the past.
Haunt me and hurt me because I'm the last.
There's no one left in my whole family.
No one to hear me, to hold me. Hold me.
My mother's now dead; my father had enough.
My gramma and grampa have joined the great Guf.
My brothers and sisters all have their own lives.
Separated by distance and duty and strife.
So Dreamcatcher, Sleepwatcher, please protect me.
From monsters and goblins and things in the trees.
I find no solace in the quiet of sleep.
I have no solace in the memories I keep.
