I find you in my dreams

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
