Pipe Dream

Each and every night, in dream you lay beside me I rub your legs to erase the chill I enjoy keeping you warm While you keep me warm Each and every night, I sleep so well Your smell, upon my tongue I taste It’s a love I know well But not its stories to tell Each and every morning, you disappear Leaving me again, to wake in despair I routinely crumble For I so badly want you there Each and every morning, I wake in a haze Damned! Be these putrid days Of loves long lost memories Each and every evening, I prepare In smile and know of your emergence being near I rush and ensure That no time is wasted For I have only a little, before you again disappear
