Ephemeral Embrace

In your embrace, from a dream I awoke

Escaping my grasp like drifting smoke

Now only an echo remains behind

Your haunting memories in my mind

An emptiness I can not hold

Your reverberations me enfold

Yet I feel them like ripples in a pond

Each one a sign of our bond

My only hope you to keep

Is to remain with you in my sleep
