Requiem for a Dream

Every waking moment,
Every sleep memory,
Every comforting voice,
Every thought, worrying.

The wait for you
The peace with you
The desire of you,
the angst, without.

My insecurity,
Your confidence,
Your emotion
My words, against your tongue.

Every photograph that spoke,
Every verse that didn't rhyme
Whispered nights,
Morning Sighs, entwined.

My fingers, your waist
A caress, warm lips
Your breath, my name
Lives, conjoined.

Starry skies,
fluid constellations,
Guided by the moon,
Destinies, unrepaired.
