In dreams I find a fleeting bliss,
You by my side, a stolen kiss.
Minutes waltz, hours disappear,
Yet reality's voice, crystal clear.

Beside me, an empty space,
A phantom touch, a cold embrace.
Eyes seek yours, a vacant stare,
A dream's illusion, love laid bare.

I try to drive away the night,
Between the lines, out of sight.
Yet shadows dance where you should be,
A yearning soul, lost at sea.

Dreams unravel, truth unfolds,
A bittersweet tale, love untold.
I wake to find you never near,
It's just a dream, a silent tear.

Gotta leave, the key I turn,
In dreams, our love will always yearn.
A journey from a love misplaced,
In waking life, a bitter taste.
