In dreams we meet
per chance
pausing briefly-
with that boyish grin
whispering
your voice deep
sensual
"you're still beautiful"...
A pain
proliferating from the void
bereft of joy
longing to scream
in shock and horror..
You are still short
balding
larger around the middle
yet those hateful words of choke...
unable to return the pain you gave.
A heart that surrenders
Only to melt in the pools
of your deep hazel eyes...
"It is good to see you too.."
Then you fade into the crowd.
and out of my dreams.
