Only in Dreams

For all those who dream of loved ones lost.

Come my love and comfort me, for my heart is weighted

Deprived of you, I exist

With soul unsatiated

Within each day a wonder of this world’s revealed in splendour

Yet wonderment is lessened 

With no means to share the venture

Though I believe in independent being, you have given

The joy of companionship

Altruistically driven

And mine is now to walk alone, until when reunited

We share again each moment blessed

And recall all we’ve sighted

So this my plea, come comfort me

For the wait is laboured

And if I reach your image in sleep, each aspect will be savoured.
