A Drean Within a Dream

Wondering and waiting The clock ticks away Impatiently reminiscing, the memories , feeling pain This divide i detest I resent the wasted space That life has created You and me , to separate Many dreams , they surface They come and they go Never here to stay Always , at the ready ,never willing more These scars, So deep They blind and they bleed But not a tear shall you see Not a sob , set free Shattered , abandoned Broken, full of despair The hunger , the yearning Just to see you, i cannot bare. Suddenly as i gaze , staring in to space I see you , just a mirage ? Again ? Or are you for real ? Afraid to advance Trembling with fear Worried you'll vanish Leaving , me alone my dear Lovingly , u smile Arms wide , an invite Timid, a response Fear bubbling inside. I reach beyond the vision Just a bit more, i see And then you disappear Just an illusion Just a beautiful dream Tears flow , they fall Freely , they cant be seen Shaken and torn Confused and bereaved. So sinister , a being The mind, it can be. So cruelly decisive playing games with me. My throat,it burns The pain , magnifique. My body shudders Dying to see , no more dreams Warmth, i feel Suddenly , So chaste Your arms around me The burning , you erase Snapping me out of my reverie The phone rings , violently. Reminding me of the distance Your voice , breathing, effortlessly The façade, worn Your voice disappears The dialtone appears Manic, though i seem. I dial effervescently Calling, to keep sane To tell you i love you, again No excuses, remain. By Amanda Miller
