A Dream

I dreamt of this man called my lover my friend

The man that I thought would stay thru lifes end

I had thought we’d hold hands while taking long leisurely walks

or perhaps hang on each others words everytime we talked

I had fantasized we’d make love gently as we slowly became one

I dreamt of strolls in the park

and stolen moments in the dark

I pictured images of poetry in words featuring you and me

I thought we’d become we but it was always just you and I

I fantasized of a man you see who was caring and sweet and knew me,

he was understanding

we’d fall in love and be complete

In dreams this man gave a damn of the fantasies within my mind

and I dreamt that together we’d be one of a kind

I dreamt of building a home

no longer alone, being romantic we’d always be together

I conjured up images of two people laughing endlessly happy

I dreamt of sharing tears the world couldn’t see

and we’d never let spill unless with each other

I dreamt all these things with that man who was supposed to be you

But the dream and this memory wasn’t of you

for my mind played a trick and left me confused

my heart broke in two for I woke up alone

I dreamt of this man called my lover and friend

But that couldn’t be you for we’ve reached the end...
