Dreamers

 

May the moon ever shine on for you

And may you always be looked after favorably

Securely in your house I hope you are

I hold you safely in my heart

Memories of you forever etched not just in my brain

But upon my soul like footprints

Under lock and key I keep a part of you

That I stole on a day way back

Inside of me somewhere deep inside it has stayed there since

And in return a piece of me fell to you

I stay waiting for you to return

Truth be told I'm not the same without you

Part of me is a deep abyss made by your absence

It feels as if part of my heart has been ripped out

We are tied together like a knot

And bound in spirit forever

When you aren't here in body

I can feel your presence

It walks with me day by day

You dance and flit across the earth

Like a fairy and just as kind

I just want to tell you what you mean to me

But I can't quite put it to words

Because you were, and are, the best friend I've ever had

The precious shining jewel, always in my pocket

Dreams of you fly across my mind

In the deepest black of the night

Thoughts of you keep me up composing this poem

And it's hard to say it all right

I wish I could just sit

And watch you dance your way across the earth

Like a shooting star across the heavens

Then I would dive after you in a rustle of motion

The leaves fall once again and I can see you once more

But only briefly

And when you leave, a hole aches in me

The strength I think I have is suddenly gone

Holding back tears has never been so hard

Finally I can hold myself together no longer

Alone at 2 a.m I cry a puddle of tears

Silently the tears splash off my face

No one will ever know

How much sleep I've lost over you

How many tears I've shed for you

Even so I can feel a wisp of you here

As I look out at the window at the blinking stars

I know that you are out there somewhere

Across the great ocean and rolling hills

If I had the means to see you, I would

We'd laugh and sing

Letting time slip by like sand

Cherishing the little moments

Spinning fairy tales together

Weaving our own little happily ever after

Playing out some of the fantasies in our head

Imagining which fantasies could come true with magic

Walking through the woods bantering

Hands entwined together

While at other times letting the silence fill the cracks

A mutual appreciation between us

Of the gift called life

And of beautiful fall days

With brightly colored leaves swirling down around us

A moment made perfect by a hug shared between us

Saying all the unsaid

That words cannot touch

And I know

Us two are dreamers

Perhaps that's why we are special

In life dreamers are not held very estimably

By children of our age

A foolish mistake it seems

They will never understand feelings with roots this deep

Everyone wise knows that dreamer bonds are something unexplainable

Because when we dance alone together in meadows

A rainbow forms above us

The purest sign of friendship

And the symbol for a bond of sisterhood

Not in blood but rather in soul

And someday perhaps we can be two twin dancing stars shining in the sky

I am yours forever and always

Truly and forevermore

Under the sun, moon, stars,

Windy days, summer nights, winter dawns, spring mornings, and glowing sunsets

At night please look out of your window

And just remember me

All those thousands of miles away

Across oceans, mountains, and valleys

Because I will be doing the same

Both of us will feel the connection

And our hearts will be joined together as one
