Your Dreams My Reality

You dream of love

And fantasy

I cannot any longer

Because of reality

My face is shadowed

By a memory

While yours glows

From your insanity

The insanity of passion

And the sexuality

Imbedded in a promise

Of fidelity

And a lifetime

Of matrimony

Yes I am past that

But I speak honestly

About life

As a casualty

Of love

And adultery

But I need to believe

In love for me only

But if you cannot

Then let me be lonely
