He says I'm perfect
And loves me so.
He holds my hand
And never lets go.

He holds me tight
And watches me sleep.
When I wake in the morning,
He'll be there with me.

He lends his shoulder
Without any asking.
He lends his coat,
Without second glancing.

And then I wake up,
Terrified and covered in sweat.
I lose all hope
and go back to bed.

Only in dreams can I see him, love him
And be with him.
