Dream


I open my eyes from a hazy dream
Trying to remember what could have been
Sorting through memories from an unfinished time
Of those caressing whispers in my ear
Causing shivers run down my spine

Trying to put a face to your haunting voice
Recalling the way you made me feel in your arms
Every touch of yours is branded on me forever
I just want to feel alive once again
But you leave me cold with just your impressions

I close my eyes over and over again
Trying to escape into the half forgotten dream
Wanting one more moment together
Hoping to find out just who you could be
Want to call out to you, if only I had a name

Reaching out to hold on to you
But the emptiness I find just causes despair
You were so real but were you really there
I wish we had more time together
It's driving me crazy, these endless thoughts

We were a melody half written
An endless ballad unsung
Want to hold onto what was yet unseen
Washed away in wisps of wakefulness
Reality seeped into that beautiful dream
