Together In Dreams
My father is sitting on the bank,
he's petting Goldie's ears.
I see them both and start to cry.
I can't control the tears.
It was as if I wasn't there,
like I was the one who was dead.
He couldn't see me standing there,
couldn't hear what I said.
When I awoke, my pillow was wet.
My heart, so heavy with grief.
They've both been gone now for so long
but they're together, thats my belief.
I was so young, so very young
when they both passed away.
Now and then they visit my dreams
but only for a moment stay.
I miss my father so very much.
I miss our Goldie too.
It brings some comfort to know they're together.
My dreams tell me its true.
~~~~not all dreams are good or bad, some are just
profoundly sad ~~~~
