I dreamed about you
For the first time in so long
You called me your heart
Like you had never been gone
My feelings are calm
But they’re deep as the sea
I wished for you here
And dreaming is fine
I can feel you in my heart
You still occupy my mind
But there’s a sadness inside
There’s a hunger to feed
You take up my attention
As much as I can give
It’s no way to love
It’s no way to live
But I’ll take what I can get
Just to have you with me
but I want you
to be free...
I have experienced such
I have experienced such emotions---long ago, but still memorable. Thank you for expressing them in this poem, and in such a verbally skillful way.
