#2 of Poetry

As I close my eyes, I see your face.  
The same each night, dancing before me.  
Your sparkling eyes and fair hair warm my heart,  
Stirring feelings I thought long dead.

I cannot forget your face,  
I cannot recall your name,  
You speak words that I don't remember,  
But each breath just fans the flames.

Why does your visage haunt me so?  
Why do the waking hours not abolish this phantom?  
Why do I love so much,  
A face that is naught but a dream?

I cannot forget your face,  
I cannot recall your name,  
I hope, I fear, with baited breath,  
That each night is the same.

Is this premonition?  
Will I one day look upon that face in truth?  
You haunt me so,  
You hound my every thought.

I cannot forget your face,  
I cannot recall your name,  
You are just a phantom of my dreams,  
Yet, I love you all the same.
