In my dream again

In my dream again, you came last night...

I saw you again the other day,
and then again y'day night.
I saw you close, I touched you,
I spoke to you, I listened to you...
I called out to you again and again...
loud and louder
I enjoyed calling out your name loud and clear
this much I remember...

Those who have gone, when they visit you in your dreams...
the images, the feelings crystal clear
its like they never left
the feeling lingers, the memories remain
leaving one so confused when one wakes to reality
each awakening, a rude reminder of the absence, of the void...

one remembers calling out to them loud, loud, over and over again
so much more to have said, so much left incomplete...

see you again

in my dreams...

Betrayal

Ambushed by shrapnel words searing the soul piercing, lacerating vitriolic volley

bloodless wounds never to heal Invisible scars Silent screams Unshed tears Unspent fury
