For all the times in
wakefulness, I think of you
my deepest desire is that
you meet me in my dreams.
Then, at least, I would know
how it feels to touch your skin or kiss
your lips.
Yet even in sleep, you elude me.
Every night, I take flight in search of
you only to find an empty sky.
In the morning, you ignite my
thoughts again, I view a sea of faces
in my daily life, but yours is
never there to find.
Like a ghost or illusion that
I cannot grasp or hold.
And so I must content myself with
the image I have of you inside my mind.
