Again

 It's always that one thing

We try to ignore and

Conciously suppress -

That comes

Conquering our nights

Becoming alive in our dreams

When our subconscious minds

Takes over

We saw and felt

In our dreams 

That one day

We happen to reunite

Our faces beaming up with smiles

As we stare into each other's eyes

Across the space

Hundreds of people around

Walking and passing by

As our time

Comes to a pause

Quicken our nervous steps

To lessen the distance between us

And we both come to a complete halt

As soon as we stood

In front of each other

They whispered out our name

We just smiled in response 

Holding ourself so hard

Resisting

From running into their arms

"How are you?"

They asked,

Their hand reaching out for our arm

Crystal tears pooled up our eyes

"I'm good. Thank you for coming"

We whispered

Giving out a little chuckle 

Trying to hide our trembling voice

But they always hear

beyond the depth of our voice

They briefly brushed their fingers against ours

Before gently touching our cheek

Their eyes starring into ours

Perhaps scanning

For all those unspoken words

Tears instantaneously flow

Gushing off

Like a dam released

We tried to smile

We tried to hide

We tried to suppress

From showing

How our heart was breaking

As we forced ourself

To hold back

While all we wanted

Was to hug them

And tell them

How much we missed them

But they always saw

Beyond the depth of our eyes

Slowly they wrapped their arms

Around us

And pulled us 

Into their embrace

And we stood there

Crying like a child

"It's okay,"

They whispered

"I'm here with you"

That was exactly

The problem 

They are here

Now

But they will leave

Again

And again

We woke up crying

And drifted back to sleep

With warm tears

Continue streaming

Even when we

Close our eyes
