someday still feels so far away

Someday I know his hands will stop crushing my heart

and caressing my memory-

his ghost will move into my subconscious mind

and appear in my dreams only occasionally,

like an old friend who’s face brings warmth

instead of just sadness.

Someday I know love will no longer long

to build a home out of a fantasy,

someday I know I will open up and

share my soul with another again,

but today someday still feels so far away

and the painful silence of the past

is all I have left

to hold on to

for now.
