Daydream

I close my eyes to the world.

I slowly drift back through my memories.

Memory embraces me in its warm, loving arms.

A soft melody lays rest upon mine ears.

I recognize this sweet sound; it is... your voice.

Slowly your image takes form in the recesses of my mind.

Your image is so vivid it makes my heart feel calm and light.

I reach out to touch you and draw you close.

My heart sinks as I discover the coldness of emptiness.

A single tear slowly streams down my cheek.

I open my eyes as I fall to my knees.

As I reach the cold, damp grass; the single tear becomes a river.

Now my soul longs to feel your loving embrace once again.

My heart yearns to have you near once more.

Why did you have to leave me?

I need you, I want you, you are my lifeline.

Without you I cannot go on living.

Please return to me.

Give my song glorious voice again.

Lift my shattered heart from the depths of despair.

My life has no meaning or purpose.

You were my light and guide through the strife.

Now I am lost and wandering forever in shadows.

I need you my beloved... oh, please return to me.
