i had too much to dream last night
i'd give anything to go back to sleep
i had too much to dream last night
the hangover like nothing I’ve ever felt before
it wasn’t from tequila
it was the image of you
being here
being able to hug you
hear your voice
we laughed together
you watched me grow
held my hand when I needed you most
visions of what life would be like
played in my mind for what seemed like forever
i woke up to emptiness
how quickly the touch of your hand escaped my mind
the sound of your voice
an echo I can’t seem to replay
i had too much to dream last night
i’d give anything to go back to sleep

Who is your "Person"?
It's important to recognize that you cannot go through life as easily on your own. My name is Elizabeth and I'm a survivor of child abuse and horrific trauma. Healing from trauma is not a quick fix and recognizing that it will take time, is part of the struggle.
