It wasn't a dream - last night
You were with me, two souls as one
Once again, I rejoiced in sorrow
Caring not that the bubble bursts tomorrow
Not a tear more can I spare
for the fragile heart doth not dare
shatter itself and lie awake,
incapable of a union, albeit in dreams!
But memories don't give up easily,
taunting and reminding of endless
tears that fall on sunny days,
mellow mornings and cool nights
just like those in the past
with black coffee and white pillow fights
It wasn't a dream - that night
The crash was real, and the blood.
The lonely lifetime ahead lurks with fears,
drowned under the ocean of a thousand tears

You captured your despair so strongly and poured it on everyone within sight. I feel your pain and longing. Try to get through this. Your life will grow less dim.

distress..this distress which is the cause and reason for the story of the life and the truth of life and that is very unpredictable..and this has come here with your strong words..well done my friend....
