I rolled over and sighed,another sleepless night,
another meaningless day,
another tribute to pay
to the loss of my heart
to the loss of your voice in my ear
which I fear
will never return
no matter how much it burns
I can't change the past
I can't make it last
oh I wish ...
but wishes hardly come true
dreams do
its tearing up my mind
eating at my soul
will I ever become whole?
Once again to feel
what was real
in my mind
in my arms
all those charms
were they fake?
how reminiscing makes my heart break
how I shake
how I cry
was I living a lie?
Was I caught in a trance
of bitter-sweet romance?
someone please wake me
I can't see this through
how can I live a life I thought was made for me and you
and now with you gone ...
I sit here and sigh
wiping another tear drop from my eye
facing the facts that there's nothing I can do
now I roam an empty soul
waiting
wishing
wanting
to once again
feel you.

Until we meet again
I'll continue to search and to dream,
To see this world with unshuttered eyes.
I'll continue to learn and live,
To stretch out my wings and take my flight.
My mind will expand as my knowledge swells;
I'll wait, be patient as my world spins
And as deep within my thoughts swirl and curl
I'll continue to die deaths as I remember -
My mind contract with sorrow-
Of days, months filled with enchantment and wonder
Where my whole world revolved around you,
Your smiling countenance shining light
Like a rainbow after the storm.
With my heart cradled within your palm
I confess that I am yours
That you are my light, my love, my all.
And I'll continue to love you, patiently waiting ...
Until we meet again.

Dreaming
I dreamt of you today.
Dreamt
That you had arrived;
That you had fed and slept
At my breast.
Oh,
Oh, how I long
To see you,
To smell you,
And kiss you,
To feel
Your wet lips on mine,
To feel your tiny arms
Around my neck
And your tiny fingers on mine!
Oh
Oh, how I long
To look into your eyes
And see you smile at me
Stretch out your arms to me
Wanting me,
Clinging to me,
Proclaiming me yours.
If I could
I would
Make you
Make you curl up inside me
Close to my heart
Connected by a cord
Two as one
But only
If I could.
