A dream shattered, a loved one gone,
Distance bloomed, a barren dawn.
Were we ever joined, in a world unseen?
A phantom touch, a fading sheen.
A dream.
How to speak of the heart's cruel plight?
How to convey the endless night?
What storms I face, what depths I tread,
You, oblivious, a life unsaid.
You cannot know, you cannot see,
Our bond unmade, eternally.
Incomplete I stayed, and incomplete I'll be,
A thirsty life, forever free.
As though we never truly met,
A dream.
Your shadow's embrace, I long to keep,
To walk beside you, while others sleep.
Forget this world, its fleeting lies,
For you alone, my heart now cries.
No more shall pain this spirit claim,
Without you, spring is but a flame.
The autumn winds, a smoky haze,
These endless days, these sleepless ways.
This torrent of sorrow, a bitter rain,
A dream.
