Cold Pillow

I turned and find the pillow now so cold You are not there now for me to hold Was it only through night’s dark hours? Is sleep so cruel to wield such powers? To take you from me though you were not there Dreams so cruel not to answer my sweet prayer You felt so real and you held me so tight My special dream lover through the dark night Entwined together as one, not parted Not a thread between love uncharted To sail the hours on waves rising high Hearts in rhythm souls touching and sigh To turn and find that you were not there Left me bereft incomplete not one of a pair. © ~GG~ 30/12/2012

The cold pillow is no substitute for that lovely dream. But dreams can come true. Wishing you a wonderful new year.
