Another dream
I can see you
sitting in my family's
living room,
laughing....
You see me
Your smile
weakens me
You come towards me
in passing,
your hand touches
the small of my back
I can feel
the warmth of your hand
Your breath on my cheek
as you speak into my ear
I wake in panic
Once again,
the feelings
of a dream
being so very real....
But not....
Words spoken
but never heard....
