Letting go of it all;
Like waves rising only to fall.
Troubles seem to slip away;
When I lay down at the end of the day.
Sleeping softly, gently breathing;
Why I wonder, of you I’m dreaming.
Thoughts of you I haven’t thought;
But memories they seem to have brought.
Simple things softly remind me presently;
Of how I miss you constantly.
I see your face in my dream;
And feel a smile spread and gleam.
But soon this vision seems to fade;
And it feels from you I’m forbade.
I reach out to you but from you I’m gone;
Drifting backwards through the smoke I’m drawn.
I’m slipping away from you in my dream world;
Back to where I don’t have you, into reality I’m hurled.
Back to the beginning is where I’ve been deserted;
Returned to my Island of Loneliness perverted.
To be alone I now hate my sanctuary sabotaged;
Now my heart is no longer hidden and camouflaged.
All I crave is your presence and company;
To be joined for eternity, oh why wont this hurry.
My solitude to cease and have my soul’s desire;
Nothing would make my joy rise higher.
Now I see you drifting in with the tide;
I reach out to grasp your hand and hide.
But suddenly the waves wrench you back;
And you’re slipping away and again you I lack.
