Dormant

I can remember, like a bell in the darkness, the sound of your voice growing warmer and closer to me... In my heart it's been forever, we've never been apart. I can't recall being strangers, feeling disconnected to you as I do to the multitudes of hollow beings I encounter day after day. The ringing sound of mending glass, once again coming together. Words of extraordinary worth, whispers resounding so deeply in a fortress within my soul, given infinite strength by your presence.

Today fades into yesterday and blooms into another day within minutes, and yet... every today lingers on for ages when I look into the moon hoping the sun will more willingly rise... Sometimes it seems as though I do live in a dream... I feel so near you and so far. A dream. I lay dormant there beside you, dormant and conscious that you're there and wishing that my eyes, imprisoned by destiny and the echoes of it's ticking clock, would reveal that my suspiscions are not just suspiscions, but reality. I'm wrapped in your arms I know it, I feel the warmth of your chest against my cheek, the softness of each breath you take. Your heart setting the pace of mine so eager to follow your lead, dancing to the soft beat of harmonious adoration.

When will I wake... I look at you, and pray for the moment I wake. For the moment I discover the meaning of living and leave behind the illusion my dreams impose. I pray for forever with you my angel... I pray for the day that "far apart" melts into "never apart." I miss you too.
