Your lips
So far away.
Biding time.
I find myself
Imagining the day away
While awake.
I do not recognize
This new ache for more.
The fantasy;
This ecstasy
That fills me
Remains
Drunk on dreams
Of reality.
My heart fervent;
An accelerated tempo inside.
I am left wanting.
You will dream of me
Until your end.
And then on misty moor;
Through shadows gloom
Will you continue to roam.
Evermore
Forsaking your eternal home.
Your longing unending.
Arms always empty
In your shapeless form.
Not long enough
Did you hold me while your heart
Was still warm.
She thought.
She did not think.
She loved.
She believed she loved.
She thought she was awake.
She was only dreaming
So
Here she lies staring
At the ceiling.
And
Sleep evades her
This darkest night
As so many nights before.
Once again she tosses and turns,
Unpleasant thoughts raging inside her brain.
More often than not this bed is no friend.
I hold on to things
Life has left
For
Far too long.
I put them under my pillow
While I dream.
And
Weave them into the wild flowers in my hair.
I seem to carry a
Concealed hope
That they might come back to life
If only I
Love them enough.
A little truth.
A little lie.
A dream.
A compromise.
Reality.
Yours and mine.
I know you from a dream.
I have touched your face.
Our hearts,
They have met
And they did not forget
The light
And warmth.
The embrace.
These
Romantic notions,
She slips into them so easily.
At night.
By candlelight.
And the moon
Her secret lover.
For her
There is no other
Who gives light to the shadows.
And never asks
But to look in her eyes.
She sighs
And wraps herself
In her covers so soft.
Her
And her
Moonlight
Lover
Dream
On.
Your presence
Has penetrated my soul.
Slowly filling cracks
And depths I have left
Unguarded.
I am no longer
Dreaming
Nor
Breathing
Without thoughts
Of
You.
Reawakening
From a long,
Lightless slumber.
The Universe
Is
Kindling your soul.
Let your spirit rise
Again.
You were awake once.
The memory playing at the edge of your brain.
Once,
When you were a child.
The air of joy filling your lungs.
But,
Somewhere
You started living in the world of dreams
To escape
This reality.
Being tread upon,
You dreamt of flying.
Being bound by invisible chains,
You dreamt of freedom.
Being silenced by manipulative words,
You dreamt of singing.
Now realize you are
The
Dream
And
Reawaken.
Whispering dawn.
Delicate fingertips
Travel lightly.
Sleepy eyelids
Fluttering,
Dreaming awake.
Tranquil breaths.
Soft voices
Echoing
Sending the night
To rest
With love.
