When I Dream

 

When I dream, I dream of you

Holding me ever so close

 

As each day goes by my feelings are repressed

One day they won’t even show

 

When I sleep I listen to songs

They remind me of what we had

 

Every day I think of you and ponder

Ponder what went bad

 

How on earth am I suppose to move on

Forgetting the moments we shared

 

Going on laughing with out you

To me it doesn’t seem fair

 

Why must I go through this pain everyday

Hiding feelings I’ve always felt

 

Lying in bed with my sleepless nights tears

Crying for the card been dealt

 

How I feel inside’s a mystery

No one really knows

 

When I dream, I’ll still dream of you

Holding me ever so close

Great expression of love and love loss. Like the way the title is summed up in the ending lines. Thanks for entering the Missing Him, Missing Her contest.

Beautiful poem. The tone works brilliantly with the subject matter to create the feeling of saddened nostalgia. You did very well creating said atmosphere in the poem. The lack of punctuation is interesting, giving the poem the feeling of ideas running together in one great surge of emotion and memory and reaction. Very well done!
