Even now, despite the time

That's gone by since you were mine

I find at quiet moments

In my heart



That you've never left me, for

In my heart there is no door

Thus your memory locked inside

Must ere reside



Though my heart I've tried to sway

And move on to a new day

I fail in trying

For my dreams I can't escape



Where betimes you come again

And I feel the fire within

As its burns to see your face

And touch your skin



But though I hold you for a time

The dream turns so to remind

That we cannot be together

In this life



For the dream doth always fade

As I watch you slip away

And I'm left alone again

To feel the pain



As I wake and wonder why

Though a thousand times I've cried

Your wound never heals

Nor lets me comfort find



Perhaps written before time

Twas a tale of you and I

Such to make the heavens weep

Upon its read



Wherein my fate is to yearn

So I'll wait the dream's return

Holding hope that someday...

It will never end
