for Debra

I ask you to hold me when you're not there to be held
I look into your eyes when you're not there to be seen
I feel your breath against my lips when you're miles away from me

And I really don't know why
But sometimes at night I cry

Some tell me: 'Take her away from him, she's not his to be had.'
Some tell me: 'Leave her, lose her, she's less than what you really need.'
I tell me: 'Wait for her, she loves me now.' and I'm the one I'll heed

And I'm happy when I feel
That your love for me is real

I dream of walking with you when the rain is falling from the sky
I dream of talking with you in a garden of delight
I dream of making love with you throughout an endless night

And then sometimes it seems
That I live because of dreams


I post this tonight for my friend J-. What he's going through now, I went through when I wrote this 12 years ago. Time heals but leaves a scar.

Sing while you may

Your pain is for you alone, As it is, As it was, As it will be forever, Amen

You describe exactly how I feel right now, amazing I must say. And if you like you may check out my post "An apparition from the past", where I tried to write about the same emotions you're sharing.
I really, truly loved this poem. And how well I can relate to it, too well.
