Susan Scully I Can Only Dream Your Name
You couldn't understand the somersaults
Performed inside of me, each time you looked my way.
You built the bridge that brought you near to me,
But you never meant to play with me eternally
I can't hold your hand,
I can't see your eyes,
I can't smell your earthy perfume,
I can't hear your voice,
I can't taste your kiss,
I can't feel your head resting on my shoulder,
Now I can only dream your name.
I cannot understand the snapping sounds
Of strings that once moved me, I don't feel anymore.
Empty pages fill my diary,
The old building has been left for others to explore
I can't hold your hand,
I can't see your eyes,
I can't smell your earthy perfume,
I can't hear your voice,
I can't taste your kiss,
I can't feel your head resting on my shoulder,
Now I can only dream your name.
