I (my eyes glass over as you beckon to me,

drawing me into another apparition 

of my mind’s creation.

you wrench at my heartstrings 

like the moon tugs at the tides,

and i surrender

into your imaginary embrace,

drowning in my tears of longing.

i choke on words unsaid,

i dwell on memories unmade.

i know it won’t be anything more 

than the dreams i envelop myself in 

to distract myself from the cavity

inside my soul 

the hole ripped away from me

as we parted.

i awake

my dream dissolves into the rising sun

i hope you’ll come 

to visit me again)

miss you


The author's comments:

Influenced by the lyrics and emotions deriving from the song "Saw You In A Dream" by The Japanese poem, this poem is about the longing felt towards a loved one.
