Overcome

Images escape across the terrain of my mind
voices of quondam happiness torment my current
existence
his eyes have become a piercing entity
seeing into my soul and capturing my paramount weakness
thoughts of him clutch at my heart
Again I want to return to our past
my hands no longer hanging coldly alone
again in his arms, once more a warmth in my core
My spirit requiring him to continue my existence
I dream of him while awake and during my slumber
hoping that when I awaken
we are once again together
And my reality is no longer a paradox of my dreams.
