stay
oh stay
this time
don’t let the
moment
fade again

please
promise me
you’re here
that
I’m not waking
in the dark
again

consumed
within
the essence
of your kiss
again

desperately
holding
this same
stray pillow
again

among
these wide
cold
empty sheets
again

lost in
fragments
of a dream
again

alone

This is incredibly beautiful... and painfully poignant. Yes... when dreams have you right where you want to be/should be and reality intrudes... it leaves a hollowness I didn't think could be verbalized...

But you did. *S*

James,
                                            
   Love your night plea!  I just hate it when I wake up from a good dream, one that I wish could go on! Another one for the collection I'm afraid!

Excellent write James...much enjoyed.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back
