Eternity...

I lie in bed at night and pray,
that you will think of me.
i cry until my eyelids close,
and dream --eternity.

i wake to sunlight on my face,
for a moment i forget.
then a cloud passes by,
and i realize, this is it.

i carry on throughout the day,
feigning joy, and feeling pain.
i long to gaze upon your face,
and share a smile, an embrace.

the day is drawing to an end,
and still i think of you.
i try to relax yet in my mind,
i wonder what to do.
