Only In My Dreams

Only In My Dreams Often times I've seen you A nameless face in the crowd Wandering in my dreams Then you shout my name out loud Have we met and I`ve forgotten? Do we have a past? When I dream of you I'll ask And then I'll know at last In my dreams sometimes I hold you Then you suddenly disappear I wake up with just a memory And I wish you were still near There are nights I think I hear your voice Laughing in the hall Then I'm awoken by a sudden noise And realise you`re not there at all I wish that you were real And not only in my dreams You're a figure in my subconscience Where everything's not as it seems

I actually ADORE this poem. It reminds me of dreams I've had of some familiar stranger (that paradox is incredible, isn't it?), and I love how you've captured the intrigue. Thank you for sharing!
