I Find You In My Dreams Poem by Katinka Havermans

I must have dreamt of you again
Like I did so many nights before
I felt your touch once more
And heard your voice speak but then
Woke up to realise you gone

I must have laughed out loud whilst sleeping
Remembering we had such fun
Thinking how much you can miss someone
Even if (or perhaps especially) time has been creeping
Or has it gone too fast?

I must have cried when I awoke
Wanting to find you in my dreams once more
Because the simple fact I can't ignore
The last time that we spoke
Was last night in my dream

I must have stared at the ceiling
Thinking of you and me in the dream for awhile
I just got to see you smile
It takes time for healing
But the death of a loved one will always leave a mark
