Wishful Thinking
At night you gently whisper
I feel your breath upon my neck
Your arm around my waist
Yet in the morning nothing
It is a dream, a remembrance, a memory
The day is long with torment
Blurring shapes, pedestrians on my street
I try to connect, make myself seen
Nothing… your soul remains silent
It is a nightmare, a flashback, a prick of pain
Starved for that flashing smile
As lonely is in this hell with me
You are gone to the grave
I still hear you whisper my name
It is a daydream, a fantasy, a wish
Yesterday is ash and shadow
Today is lingering rain and pain
Tomorrow is forgotten in sorrow
Shall a connection ever be regained
It is delirium, an escape, a coma
I will never see you again…

Thank you so much Larry. :) Yes I've lost too very special people to me in the past three years and grief is lingering, but there is sunlight and laughter too. Hard to find when I write sometimes. Blessings dear friend.Â
