I'm lying awake at midnight
all I long for is a simple touch
one person I want to be there
I'm waiting and waiting
an endless wait

no sooner I become restless
my eyes have closed
my conscious is at rest
however he still stirs my thoughts

ever so silently I dream
of a love that could so simply be real

we bathe in such sweet happiness
we laugh again and again
till the tears stream down our love-struck faces

the eyelids flicker
the unconscious
turns into conscious.

he fades
it is no longer the laughs she hears in her dreams
but the inner cries of her desires
longing for his eyes
longing for his touch

and longing for his love
longing for that one person who can make everything better.

I'm not sure
if I love you
If I ever did
If it was ever real

Because you see
our days were so short
so long ago
sweet

sweet yes
and when I lost you
I wanted you more
so much that

I dived into a world of
you
and only
you

and for years
years
years
years of my short life

I loved

or did I?
Did I love you?
or just the thought of you?
?

Despite what it means to admit
that there was real passion
and real want
for you

I want it to be true
because then my life
would be
bearable

Maybe even



pleasant
