Dream Lover
Written By: Ms.Matrix
*Author's note: This is Dot thinking about Bob: alive
somewhere.
I lie here
alone and near sleep
and, once again,
my mind wanders to you.
I remember the friendship we shared;
it makes me smile.
Then I realise
that our friendship could have been
so much more;
and I remember just how alone I truly am now.
My memory of you slipping away
returns to torture me;
and I weep again...
Why did we waste so much time?
Fools that we were
we thought we had all the time in the Net.
We were so wrong...
When I watched you slip away;
I wished that I had told you
how much I love you...
Did you know?
Sometimes, I think you did --
I didn't exactly hide it well!
Why am I the one left behind
to mourn changes missed,
loves lost?
Why did I have to lose you?
In my dreams you are safe at home;
gently holding me close...
You help me fight on
"To Mend and Defend"
To Mend my broken heart;
and defend our home from the
encroaching darkness.
I lead the fight
battling with each once of my strength,
always seeming strong and in control.
My "leader" facade encourages the others.
I focus on each task
planning each move obsessionally.
I can't
--I WON'T--
allow anyone else to die.
We struggle on,
memories my only comfort,
but we WILL endure.
We will always endure!
Come back to me?
Help me rebuild our home;
help me be strong...
I need you by my side.
Come home
and love me....
