What can help this?

Question

The sheets feel soft
The pillow is plump
I lay back and relax
Another day has gone by
Thinking of the events that occured
My mind was set to max

But I'm winding down
I'm breathing slower
I slowly shut my eyes
Then it comes
Those thoughts of you
Nobody hears the cries

Single tears run down my face
Like waterfalls after rain
I toss and turn as I wept
Thinking of lies
Thinking of love
My strength I should have kept

I start to calm down
I wipe my face
And then there you were
I begin to smile
My tears were happy
You came back to me for sure

I hugged you tight
You hugged me back
Told me you couldn't be without me
We laughed, we cried
We played, we smiled
We were in love so madly

I touched your hand
But it turned to dust
Whats happening I say
You can't leave me now
You look at me, as you fade
And say, its going to be okay

No! I say beginning to cry
You can't do this to me again
What does all this mean I scream
Your completely gone
I open my eyes
It was all just another dream

Answer 1

The Sheets feel soft
The Pillow is Firm
I lay back to relax
Another day has been burned
I lie and reflect on the events of the day
My mind is set with thoughts left to say

But I am winding down
I am easing my breath
I shut my eyes
And try to get rest
But dreams of you I can't escape
Your cries are silenced like a covering drape

My tears do flow down my face
Like waterfalls of sadness
My sleep retreats
As I toss and turn through this lovers madness
Thoughts of love and thoughts of lies
I pray to the lord that my strength survives

A sense of calm comes over me
I wipe my eyes of tears
Your face comes into my sight
I suddenly lose all my fears
I smile ever so bright
You have come back to me tonight

I held you strong
You embraced me tight
And you whispered "I will never leave"
We laughed and sang like love birds in flight
And sang "Again we will never grieve"
Knowing our lost love we shall retrie

I reached for your hand and you turned to dust
Shouting "Don't leave me once again!!
This is the cruelist kind of jest
For where I cannot begin
You look at me once before you fade away
And whisper "I'll be back for you someday"

NO! I shout at the top of my lungs
As I cry out into the cold and empty night
God!!What does this all mean?"
Why? Oh Why do you leave my sight
And leave me in such pain?
I open my eyes and see you are no longer there
I quickly realize it was all just a horrid nightmare

How about that? I just think it needed a better rhyme scheme. I tried to keep the jist of what you were saying too. Ok, that was fun, whether you liked it or not. Poetry can be a blast. Take care and happy holidays.
