Dear Stranger in my dreams,
I have travelled to thoughts extreme,
And places I have never been
In search of You.
A key in hand, I have struggled
Through finding its match;
A lock at sight, I lost the key I had.
I knew not where to find you
So I waited for You to find me.
Time turned tides, my body fails me,
The bridge has collapsed on my side of reality,
Like sand grains falling off the tightened fist,
You slip away in my memory.
Your voice fades with each passing day,
Your countenance is a figment of imagination
Before I know it, You aren't You.
I know there is no escape.
I know I have to cross the river
Swim across or drown in it
Trying to get back to You.
