Dreamer

sometimes I dream

I wish

that my eyes were unseeing

of your sweet tender gaze

that could sweep the oceans clean

that my ears could not hear

of the sweet emotionless lies

that left your lips in times of need

that my mouth had not responded

to your deceiving words

nor replied back in echo

of meaningless promises

I wish that my body had not melted

to your warm careening touch

but most of all

I dream a dream unachievable:

to forget all the amazing things

that I saw in your unforgiving eyes

to move on from your horrible and deceiving lies

and to at last not have you cross my mind

every night and every day

until the end of time
