Dreams of You
#2 of Poetry
As I close my eyes, I see your face. The same each night, dancing before me. Your sparkling eyes and fair hair warm my heart, Stirring feelings I thought long dead.
I cannot forget your face, I cannot recall your name, You speak words that I don't remember, But each breath just fans the flames.
Why does your visage haunt me so? Why do the waking hours not abolish this phantom? Why do I love so much, A face that is naught but a dream?
I cannot forget your face, I cannot recall your name, I hope, I fear, with baited breath, That each night is the same.
Is this premonition? Will I one day look upon that face in truth? You haunt me so, You hound my every thought.
I cannot forget your face, I cannot recall your name, You are just a phantom of my dreams, Yet, I love you all the same.
