All alone, here in the night
Trapped inside my thoughts
Holding back the thoughts of loss
The fears of despair, and pain
Like a sad soundtrack of hope
Your voice echoes through my head
I close my eyes, hiding from nothing
To see you there, the face I adore
Teasing me in unreachable sleep
So curled up with your absence to blanket me
I shiver at the remembered touch of you
Hoping no one can hear, let alone see
Tears that escape, sneaking past my lids
Closed against the cruel room
Un-graced by you, with all that you are
Distractions that fail, diverting thoughts
Only for brief moments
Crashing away to waking dreams of you
Bringing smiles and sighs
Because you are there
I am here
And I still don’t know
Do dreams still ever come true?
