Hidden Meaning Poem by Mary Champion

You came again
and beckoned to me.
'Come to this place
where no one can see
and I'll kiss you.
For you know that I miss you.'

You came again
invading my dreams,
haunting my sleep
with a vision that seems
to be real.
I can physically feel

the touch of your hand,
the press of your lips.
But can't understand,
why time doesn't eclipse
the image of you
that still reappears,
wakes the pain that I knew
after all of these years.

What does it mean?
Why can't I be free?
Why do you come -
unsettling me?
when I miss you
and I so long to kiss you.
