Trapped 

I wake in the night not know what has happened. 
Only know that something has stop the dreams. 
They come each and every night along with the tears. 
It's always the same dream. 
It changes not. 
You are there and then your gone.
The door slams shut and I am trapped. 
No way out. 
Only a dark room. 
Four walls and a door. 
No windows to greet the sunshine nor see the rain. 
Only silence and the darkness. 
You never come back. 
But now I'm awake and it's still the same. 
Four walls and a door. 
The windows are sealed. 
I am trapped in the dark. 
The tears fall from my eyes. 
How was I to know you would set me in this trap. 
Sealed with a smile and a kiss. 
A trap of soft bliss. 
Bound with your thoughtlessness. 
How I want you back. 
I fall asleep the dreams come again. 
Binding me in this trap. 
Held away from your arms. 
The darkness takes me. 
The walls close in on me. 
I am trapped. 
Crying softly into the night.
