Another faded dream

As my body falls loose from her grip

My limbs all go numb

Not in hunger

Not in fatigue because of the miles I trekked

Just to see her face, for the last time

I go limp in sorrow and my face reeking of pain

The pain of a heartbreak

And my eyes can look at her no more

As I relive all those moments in her living room

As I remember giving to her my most intimate words

In all truth and innocence

Hoping that the dream would never end

All to be rudely awakened to reality

And all I am left with are memories

Memories that will not be forgotten

But continue to haunt me day and night

Like a faded dream.
