Dreams

Oh, the dreams that pass through my head, oh the dreams,
Some about war, some about kingdoms, kings and queens.
The dreams about war have officers shouting orders, the noise of gunfire, the screams of soldiers that have been hit,
The dreams about kingdoms, kings and queens have the king marching on parade, the knights charging in to battle.
Sometimes I wake with the sheets twisted around me,
From tossing and turning as if I've been fighting,
Fighting the wars?
Fighting the knights?
Or fighting my dreams?
