Why Am I Having Dreams

I can't ever forget you. You supplied me with comfort and told me that I had a reason that I'm still here not six feet under.
I know its time to move on. I know I have to let go. I know I can’t live this way.

But I can’t. I only meet you. But it bothers me that I couldn't pay or give you anything in return.

I hurt and I failed countless of times just to ease the pain I’ve since you left.

You were the only person there to help me when I was down. I tried to help you to, but I don't know if I was any help.

When I sleep I only think of you. Every hour of the night I only think of you. When I'm awake again I'm alone.

If I can only think of you when I’m asleep, then I could sleep forever.

There’s only one way I know how to sleep forever is for me to die, but you want me to live.

Why are my dreams connected to you? Are you trying to tell me something? Is it that I’m still trying to think what I'm going to do, and how I feel?

What ever it is, I want to find out why my dreams or only of you.
