Tormenting my dreams

They haunt me still 
Like lost memories
These dreams of mine
Bring me your hope 
And entwine me
Lies 

I used to dream of you
Of love and desire
But now my dreams
Are just nightmares
Waiting to haunt me
Lies

You once made me smile
It was a joke of some sort
I chuckled, and I snort
Holding on to the laughter
I wish I had laughed more
Lies

I keep dreaming of things
People, places, and things
Of all the words I spoke in 
A year of silence with you
I must have dreamt too much
Lies

All that’s left to dream of is you
Lies
