he was sent to the nurses office to sleep but was left dreaming instead

I'm not getting enough sleep
I had to go home today
I don't wanna go to sleep
I know what I will dream of
I know why I will wake up
Sweat beads from my forehead to pillow
I know i am alone & I know I am awake
& I feel wind in my dreams & I feel sun in my dreams
& I feel love in my dreams
I get glorious moments like these
& then god takes them away
(mumble and cry)
Staying awake doesn't help
I am powerless
Sleeping does not help
I am powerless
I cannot touch my soul or bed
I can reach within my heart &
Pull out the knowledge I keep secure within
This saves me
My dreams dont haunt me
they harm me
I don't dream anymore
I don't remember which is worse
When I'm awake I contemplate
and when I'm asleep I don't live
I don't want to die
I want to stay awake
you're fine kaleb you're fine
you're okay now

don't die.
