Daydream Lover by lerj

I day dream of a friend who crossed my way,
Even sharing a loving relationship with him some day,
And wonder why haven’t things flowed to make this play;—
How long shall sweet memories last anyway?—
Oh! Have I lost touch with reality?
Then laying such thoughts of negatives far, far far away,
I hope I’ll not day dream my life and stay
Caught up in what has not yet changed since that sweet day;
*
What can I do? O! what have I missed the chance to say?
Oh! Don’t misread; I never said I love him anyway,
Though silent dreams sure say
I wish that that’s actually the way
For strangely I miss him—or is that just another play?
Confused feelings and rash emotions try to say.
*
I dream still of a friend who passed my way
Whose words and actions stay
Locked up in passing time that day,
Still make it hard to understand
Or banish their magnetic tray
That does not explain nor bring as light of day
Just where we are,
For I do not know
If there exists something he has to say,
To clear up the filings that hold me to that tray,
And prop up my eyelids to see as I watch this play—
But I‘ll dream still, until my friend does come across my way;
Oh! That it’s with love, I dream:
Heart, you didn’t hear the last words of my daydream play!
