A Picture In My Mind

David Hopkins

From Time to Time 

I see a picture in my mind of you 

and you see me too,

Then I come to pass you by 

And I've missed you.

So i always return to my mind 

And I dream of you 

But the picture is never clear.

i know that you're near 

For now, i can hear your voice,

calling my name

But I can never see you ..., 

only your voice 

So perfectly wonderful to hear, and you are near me.

 Can you hear me?

Can you see me?

 

Then I dream and dream of touching you..,

So I reach out to you to feel you touch me too 

and you pass me by....,

And I dream and dream and dream of loving you .

    This poem comes across as dream like and feelings of loss in a surreal world where time passes so slowly. Nicely written
