Lying in my arms
The warmth of your breath
Only the wisp of a dream on my neck
Your smooth and sacred skin
Only the blanket brushing my legs
The soothing calm of your voice
Only a whisper carried away in the notes of my
Lonely lullaby
I stay here wide eyed and restless
Fearing the cold, empty slumber
Awaiting my return upon a
Cold, empty mattress
Your silhouette creeps behind me
Your arm wraps around me
Your eyes look to mine as
Your lips graze my shoulder
The midnight hour haunts me
With your false presence
Yet knowing you are somewhere
Alone in a silent dream
I imagine brushing away
Lines of your hair
Watching your peaceful beauty
Your features, so soft and vivid
The memories of you
Coiled around me this chilly night
Are now so soft and vivid
Tonight I will fall asleep
With your memory in my arms
But held tight in my heart
As I send to you
A wish upon a star
Carrying my
Lonely lullaby
