A Dream of Death

Floating so gracefully
peace within my soul
seeing your beautiful face
smiling in the distance

reaching out my arms
to finally hold you again
lights so wondrous
comfort to my eyes

trying to move closer
invisible restraints
overpower my will
your face slowly fading

a whisper brushes my cheek
that it's not yet my time
I love you kisses my ear
as you fade into the darkness

awakening in my own bed
seeing you only in my dreams
missing you more than ever
as I wipe a tear from my eye
