Embrace

There is a deep desire to sleep
To slip away
And finally forget


I entered a dream
I remember waking up with out you
And I was gone too


What followed were empty days with nothing
Nothing but the feeling I lost
Everything


I remember
Once we were as close as our own skin
Maybe even closer


I liked your eyes watching me
Like hands touching me
I spent many days waiting

Thinking

Longing

Dying


I remember


Only sunlight reminded me
There was your warmth
And then it was gone


I remember darkness


There is a deep desire to sleep
To slip away
And finally forget


But there is a quiet force
Stronger then heartache
Brighter then the sun


Embracing me


It's not you
I see it now


It's life


I want to live
                          my life.
