I Dream of Closure

Last night I lay in bed, lonely,
crying because I miss you
and wishing we still were,
Prayed to God for just one more chance.

He must have taken pity on me,
as my dry brown eyes grew heavy
and I fell into a slumber,
Because you were in my dream.

Out of thin air you appeared,
still the radiant man I remember
You stared at me as I looked away
my bewildered face must have looked funny.

We stand in silence, you still staring,
your big cheesy smile and your piercing baby blues
give way to a puzzled look and you ask
"What are you waiting for?"

And that is all it takes for me.
I rush to your outstretched arms,
as i embrace you, and you hold me in return.
arms wrapped around, eyes shut tight.

My face burrows into your soft wool coat.
Your aftershave invades my senses
as my knees buckle, you hold me up
and all seems right in the world.

Tears trip over my cheeks and stain your coat,
but none of it matters to you,
You're just happy we are there,
interlocked for what seems an eternity.

This embrace goes on forever,
makes up for months gone by in silence.
I wish we could stay like this always,
But I know it isn't so.

Inevitably I awake to reality
just as sad as I was when I fell asleep.
A reality where you and I don't speak,
a reality in which an us will never be.

I spend the day in bed
desperately trying to relive the dream,
I plead with my body to let me rest
so i may dream the dream where we exist.

All I need is just one moment,
I need closure that everything is fine,
I want to dream of you one more time
So I may say my final goodbye
and know that you will hear me.
