Pipe Dream
Each and every night, in dream you lay beside me
I rub your legs to erase the chill
I enjoy keeping you warm
While you keep me warm
Each and every night, I sleep so well
Your smell, upon my tongue I taste
It’s a love I know well
But not its stories to tell
Each and every morning, you disappear
Leaving me again, to wake in despair
I routinely crumble
For I so badly want you there
Each and every morning, I wake in a haze
Damned! Be these putrid days
Of loves long lost memories
Each and every evening, I prepare
In smile and know of your emergence being near
I rush and ensure
That no time is wasted
For I have only a little, before you again disappear
