Poetry

It's been so long since I've seen you.. do you still remember my name?
The years come and go, but my feelings haven't changed,
Did you think that I had forgotton.. did you think I'd never return?
How could I forget my biggest regret.. while the fire inside me still burns,
But Life is just an illusion.. as I awaken just to survive...
Going through all of the motions.. of living the 9:00 to 5:00,
The light begins to fade away.. as the day comes to an end...
And when I close my eyes to sleep.. is when my life begins,
For that's when we're together.. and there you "love me too"...
And I make love to you all night. When I dream of you,
It's "not the perfect answer".. it's less than what I want...
I want so much more of you.. than just the dreams you haunt,
It's "not the perfect answer".. for tears you'll never see...
But as I lay my head to sleep.. It's what I need for me,
