Dream of You

Eyes so transparent, that through them one
 sees the soul.

 It took so long, to let you in.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 In just one night, you became my whole world.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can still feel your body, next to mine.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can hear my name, spoken by your soft voice.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can feel your soft skin, sliding against mine.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little more each day.

 I can feel your mind entwined with mine.
 Now, without you.
 I die a little each day.

 I want to sleep, to dream of you.
 Because that is the only place,
 Where you now exist.

 And, without you.
 I die a little more each day.
