Alas. Another poem.
MY DREAM

I look in the mirror this morning.
To see the tears streaming down my face.
I want to hold you.
The way we used to be.

I want you to still love me.
The way I still love you.
I never wanted to leave you!
You know that... Don't you?

I look deeper.
Wait!
Am I imagining things?
Was that really your face I saw?

The look... So cold...
Your eyes.
Were they full of tears as well?
Or was that simply my imagination?

I pry my eyes from the mirror.
Just for a moment,
I see that I'm alone...
But then, I look back up... And your still here.

Hold me!
Stay here!
Don't leave my tortured soul!
I never wanted to leave you!

We parted on such horrible terms...
Can you ever forgive me?
I wanted to stay forever.
Did you? Would you have?

The knife rested in my hand.
I thought I wanted it.
But, then, I thought I didn't want you.
It's closer to my wrist.

Was that a tear?
My tear?
NO! My eyes are dry! I look up.
There you are.

Your hand reaching for me.
Tears streaming down your face.
Your begging me.
"Please, stop. Don't hurt yourself anymore."

The knife falls from my hand.
Tears streaming down my face.
I'm begging you.
"Please, don't leave me here alone! Forgive me!"

We embrace.
The way we used to be.
Your arms keeping me safe.
I never want to leave.

I open my eyes.
Your gone.
I look around, knife in hand.
And it was only a dream.

You'll never come back for me.
Never come to stop me.
Never care for me.
Never forgive me.
