Alone In Her Dreams

Silently she sleeps alone in her dreams

 

Is it here I exist or am I a myth

 

Illusions are real as I lay by her side

 

Yet tonight I felt lost the fires have died

 

The room where we loved no longer feels warm

 

Our once flowering bed now ravaged by thorns

 

My head lays in nettles my limbs upon weeds

 

And still she sleeps alone in her dreams

 

 

I watch her breathe she murmurs she moans

 

There are two in this bed but one is alone

 

Her mind is her secret kept hidden from me

 

Her words are like legends in stories she weaves

 

But words are not spoken when love is not real

 

Truths are kept secret and never revealed

 

A tear gently forms to run down my cheek

 

And still she sleeps alone in her dreams
