there's times
when i go to sleep
sleeping deeply
i imagine myself
in your arms
holding me
as you whisper
your apologies
in my ear
and i cry
pour oceans
out of my eyes
waterfalls
falling over cliffs
after borders
finally be broken down
i cant tell if it's
a dream or a nightmare
but i do know
i wake up scared
and i'd
have many dreams like that
as i try
to forget
all the different
types of hurt
i've been put through
try to heal
bruises and scars
wounds deeper
than i'm able to handle
but then
you come again
and come again
like your trying
to explain everything
in my head
or maybe
all i want is just one word
from you
instead
maybe
i just need you
like you needed me
wrap it all up
because no matter what
i'm always bleeding
bleeding memories
of you leaving
trying to find
remedies
as i remember you
weeping
grieving
sometimes
i dream of you
shaking my hand
fighting for me
stroking my head
as you remind me
of your love
and i can only be
graced with slumber
then i wake up.
