In Love With a Dream

To be in love with a dream___
An old dream of who I thought
You were, the preimagined
Image of the person gone

Left with the low tide of night__
A full moon night years ago
Just a hollow empty shell
Remains__who are you anyway?

Appears to be considerate__
But not really behind scene
Sarcastic, hurtful, loveless__
Wishing for full-moon return

Bringing the person back who
Disappeared many moons hence
Where is the first star of night
Come answer my wish for love
