One Last Time

The sweetest smell surrounds me And I feel a gentle hand caress my cheek. I feel warm and loved and cared for And all I can think is How I wish this would never end. But then I wake, Cold, alone, surrounded by darkness. I rub the sleep from my eyes and with each movement The memories of my dream slip away. Walking through the hallways that were once filled With the same warmth of my dreams I try not to think of you. I try not to think of the things I miss And how badly I long for you To caress my cheek one last time.
