Unease

I dreamed about lady bugs, I dreamed about meadows, I dreamed about a tiny town, shadowed by the petals

I dreamed about being home, I dreamed I was alive, I dreamed about a nice warm meal, with coffee on the side

I dreamed about my leaving, I didn't want to go, but when the ringing hit my ears, I knew I'd wake alone

My dreaming makes me mad sometimes, I wish they wouldn't tease, to make me think I'm where I'm meant, instead I'm ingesting unease
