Dream of Loss

 Every night  as sleep descends

I dream of the love we shared

I dream of our moments together

Moments so precious, so rare.


At times tears slide down silently

Ruing all  we had and lost

As fears and constraints held us back

We gained safe life at a deadly cost.


And I lament dwelling in two worlds

So varied, so far apart

A black gulf stretches twixt you and I

Living by fits and starts.
