A Futile Dream


I lay in bed at night watching,hoping For a world Where you and I could be One A world where we could be Together in truth Where our forms had been Fitted perfectly together I lay here in bed awake, with The fiercest of wanting You to be Mine A wanting that never ceases To amaze even me That I miss you everyday Loving you so dearly I wish for a lifetime of soft kisses To ease any pain that may be Leftover from long Years of incompleteness But I lay here in bed knowing Ruefully that these dreams Can never fruitify Without a common ground I will lay here alone and watch The full moon shine For you and many Others who may never become whole
