sail away

xiii

you told me once

that dreams were just

reminders that we can do

anything.

i can hear you whispering

in the dead of night,

with your arms around me

and your smile shining in the darkness.

but my dreams are filled with you

and you're gone.

so what am i supposed to do now?

why can't you be here to tell me how to go on?

to wrap me in your arms

and somehow put me back together?

you are living your dreams

but without you here,

i can never live mine.
