Love Poem: I See You In My Dreams

I See You In My Dreams

I see you in my dreams
  I feel you in my arms
But reaching out to touch you
  Only causes harm

You are not there on my pillow
  You are nowhere to be found
Sheer despair surrounds me
  In my tears I drown…

Please take me back, my darling
  This time I’ll treat you right
For if you won’t, I swear to God
  I will not live another night…

What’s this? The phone is ringing
  It’s your number on the screen
As I pick up the receiver
  My equilibrium careens

I think the words ‘I love you’
  But all I hear come out
Is your voice on the other end
  Calling me a lout…

The click I hear is like a knife
  To pierce my very soul
A lunge into my very heart
  ~ May God seize full control
