I dreamed and dreamed
Endlessly, sleeping
In Mother’s dark womb
I dreamed of LIFE only
Life that was to come….
Now living, now in Life
No dreams no happiness
But only strife
Now living sleeplessly
Scared that dreams may come
Scared what life would become
No dreams, no sleep
Not until my death
Then in the darkness
Of my tomb
Once again I will dream
Of life, that could have become.
