I wake from dreams of you in maddening confusion.
For I have felt your touch so honestly,
Seen your face so vividly, yet you have long since disappeared.
Never before have I dreamed of one this way.
Shall I forever lie awake,
Forever fearful that in slumber you will return to leave me yet again.
So now I beg of you; if our souls cling to each other as I fear they have done all this time,
Release me as you long so painfully to do.
