I believe I would be rich For I can’t run away from this itch If I get a dollar for every dream I have of you My bank would burst green in hue The world on the other side is mundane Though your presence renders me insane In an alternate reality, all things are possible Yet you loving me fully remains implausible To wait for your love is to tread and till The highest mountain and the lowest hill All that arduous labor spent in vain But just one call from you feels like rain At night, my soul converses with my mind and I awaken to a reality that feels unkind The gnawing emptiness creates distress An elephant in the room that no one can address I remind my heart I desire you no longer Confused why, in your absence, it grows fonder The waters of my mind are deep and mysterious I ask myself again, how did it get this serious? Is this journey the fruit of our heavenly connection? Or is it just a mechanism of my youth’s dereliction? How did I invite you without my permission? Your visitation haunts me like cancer in remission In every lifetime, a season shows its reason To let go of your memory feels like treason But I know I owe it deeply to my heart To bestow upon it the gift of a fresh start
