I had a dream last night
A crimson envisage of LIFE
A daughter and a loving wife
A pleasant nighttime sight
A future glimpse it did seem
Of what was suppose to be
In be bed so comfortably
Telling my child stories
Jack and Jill went up the hill
Juliet’s window sill
The house, the clock, three blind mice
Mother gooses nursery rhymes
Everyone sings happily
But with what's next you will see
That fairytales aren't meant to be...
Slowly then this dream does fade
Got a job were I did stay
All alone at work all day
My daughter to her friends to play
I think of my wife endlessly
All alone left to sleep
But what is this I do see
Awake? Does she wait for me?
The clock clicks half past ten
I see her slowly snuggle in
My eyes burn, now opening
Into focus, down on him!
Were he came form I don't know
But she doesn't make him go
His fingers trail her silky clothes
She smiles now moving in close
Her moans, her screams
Equal mine of agony
To God she calls
In pleasure up against the wall
My lord I ball
My eyes sting from what they saw
Next thing I know she leave
Breaking up our family
To this man, her destiny
My scared frantic child screams
"Daddy! Daddy! Please help me!"
As I watch from a distance...Helplessly...
Three days later I'm a mess
Blood stained hands against my breast
What happened next you can guess
In the DARK, the void, the earth I rest...

Oh, wow. That's terribly depressing in a small, strange way, I'm not going to lie to you. But I like the poem as a whole. Nobody seems to be having good dreams lately.
I guess we'll figure it out sooner or later. Great poem. Good luck to you.
