You gave no other choice
but to let you go.
Never will I see your face
except in photographs
of happier times
and when I close my eyes.
Now I only see you
in my dreams
and there all this heartache
has vanished.
You smile at me,
and I fall in love
all over again.
In my slumber,
we build new memories together,
starting where we left off
before the tragic end came.
Then I wake up,
and the reality of your absence
tears me apart.
