Wonderland

Sigh and breathe and fall asleep
For in our dreams we do not weep
In the land of slumber we stay
Until the dawn of the coming day

Dream a Dream per chance to live
For all the joy life has to give
Forget our troubles that cause us woe
Into a wonderland our mind does go

There in this place of magic and awe
There are no rules of house nor law
We do as we please as we wander so free
Free as a bird as life was meant to be

But there are things which may cause surprise
You may soon lose trust within your eyes
Things in this realm aren't as they appear
Objects of happiness can inspire great fear

This realm of beauty reverence and grace
Can become a brutal unforgiving place
A dream is a dream when it is free of care
Yet steep is the path from grace to despair

Nightmares are tortuous filled with darkness untold
Void of happiness so baron and cold
There in those depths the soul cannot hide
There you will find what you bottled up inside

This fate awaits those who do not share
Friends shine a light and will always be there
In those moments of darkness do not whine nor yelp
Light will be given, you need only ask for help
