A Dream By the Lake Side

It is always the same dream You and I by the lakeside, watching the sun set In silence and our bare feet feeling the stream The fading sun closing a chapter hard to forget It is always a cloudy and stormy night closing in Vividly symbolising what losing you implies Beyond the skyline the sun rapidly sinks I’m terrified and awaken as you evanesce with the tides When awake I keep returning to the lakeside Hoping to rewind the dream and have it rewritten Waiting for you to come back by my side Hoping to hold you tight and never be awaken
