Absent

Different from how I remember, this place is no longer the same.
The silent wind streams through the tall grass, and in the distance I hear your name.
The waves in the water are soft and dance with the swaying blades.
However the longer I sit here the more the sun fades.
So unlike the memories, its almost hard to take.
I feel like deep down I'm just going to break.
No one is around to hear me and my sighs.
Good thing for they are usually followed by my cries.
At this point I'm not sure what to do, but I have realized that what is missing is you.

Daydream

Fingers interlocked.
A ray of dawns light beams in through the blinds on the window.
You sleep soundly as I lay awake
And watch you dream.
I imagine the stories that go round in your mind.
With each breath you take, my smile grows.
Breathe in.... breathe out.
Seeing the innocence on your face brings me peace.
A moment of truth,
Instead of the lies I traditionally feed myself.
The sun has risen and the picture of you rests in my mind as a drift off.

Weary

Vision goes blurry, the dream has begun.
A faceless man approaches and takes my hand.
Gently tugging, leading to the door.
The exit sign flickers in the background.
Stopped in the hallway, looking back.
Once turned around the rain starts to fall... inside.
A picture hard to make out pass the intense rain drops.
What looks like paper dolls.... melting in the storm.
Kisses are blown in their direction, as they float away.
Once again the man pulls in his direction.
Following... with extreme caution.
The door is pushed open,
But there is no light showing what lies behind.
