dreams they linger:

night time comes
and with it your voice
as liquid as the sea.
in my dreams
you wrap your arms around me
i cannot get you
out of my head,
though i’ve tired.

you kiss me
somewhere within my reverie
it’s sweet and i cling
to it’s memory.
even as dawn breaks and
wakes me
your taste lingers on my lips.
i cannot get you
out of my head,
though i try.

shadows of a fantasy
wisps of unreality
recreate themselves in my mind
late at night.
in them you love me
and i love you still.
though when morning comes
you disappear and
i am left unnerved because
i cannot get you
out of my soul.
