...the hardest parts

All

my

dreams

are tainted

By your death

Even when I'm dreaming of you

You're not there

When I wake up

Even when I'm not dreaming of you

the sense of loss is so great

It would be easier to stay in the dream

the falling asleep and waking up

are the hardest parts

*

Thanks for reading!
