What are you Dreaming Of?

Sleeping so soundly
Looking so beautiful
Wishing I could hold you
And be in your dreams

Tired and worn
Moving, work and me
Wearing you down
Losing your steam

Dreaming of a life
Where things are better
Than they have been so far

Watching you sleep
Wondering what you’re dreaming of
Wishing it was me.

Watching and Waiting

You continue to grow
Getting stronger and sure
Wanting to get it right
So you can endure

Cold as ice at times
Yet your heart warms through
Life’s struggles are
Still hard on you

Through work and through play
You are in control
Changing your life
Hardening your soul

You say you’re a survivor now
Needing to keep yourself secure
From the pain in the world
Your sanity to insure

Taking charge of your life
Decisions are now your own
Doing what YOU want
Together or alone

Before you make yourself
Too callous and cold
Remember the wonders
HE has made to behold

Friends and family stand firm
To help ease your aching
With loving eyes we are
Watching and waiting
