Dreaming Of You..

At night my mind goes free,
To dream of things I want to see,
Things I wish were reality,
But sadly things that could never be.
I dream that you were only hiding and you are still here,
And when I find you I get to hug you , kiss you and hold you near.
Then I wake up empty handed,
To the floor my heart feels like it landed.
Are these considered sweet dreams or twisted torture?
The pain manifests again oh the blatant horror!
If only I could live in those dreams,
Where my baby lives and the sun still beams.
To be awake or to sleep?
To be happy again or to weep?
Nightmares for me now are when I'm awake,
Where my soul is broken and my heart still aches.
When I'm asleep I'm happy there it's true,
Because its only there when I'm dreaming of you...........
