Dreams Of You Poem by James Casey

Dreams Of You

Standing in the mist of time, I wait for your return
Silent dreams not forgotten, my god how I do yearn

I look through the mist of time, a fog that lifts for no one
I hold out my hand, waiting for you,

A touch that never seems to come, never to feel it again
Silent memories of dreams long lost, will they ever, ever end?

I walk through the mist of time, unsure of every step
If it gets me closer to you, I'll endure the tears I've wept

Silent memories of hope have faded, the mist is now all gone
Maybe you were never there, were you only a dream all along

Suddenly a touch, I look up, your not a dream it's true
You wipe the tears, erase the fears, Finally I have found you

You never left me, I see you every day
I never close my eyes without you, It is my price to pay

At last you're here and we can talk, Of things so tried and true
While your here I must confess, I'm so sorry that I failed you
