Love

In my daydreams 
You still love me, 
The wind is still music 
Moving through the trees 
The branches in chorus 
Singing our love song. 
 
In my daydreams 
You still smile at me, 
The sun is a friend 
Helping me see 
The light in your eyes 
Shining on me. 
 
In my daydreams 
You kiss me once more, 
The blood in me quickens 
Racing throughout 
So every cell can feel 
The wonder claimed by the lips. 
 
Then I blink and wake up 
To where you are gone, 
Distance matters not 
For you are in another plane, 
Where the wind cannot carry my voice, 
Where the sun cannot give me your shadow, 
Where my blood spilled will not bring you back.
