Paradise Not

I reach for you
But grasp only emptiness
Awaking with a start
The dream is shattered

The Fields surround me
To most, a paradise
But each moment, an eternity
Without you beside me

I hear your thoughts
And I feel your longing
Oh to hold you again
To drown in your eyes

If not for your love
A prisoner of Tartarus
But it matters not
For you are not with me

Ah, to sleep, to dream
For it is only there
That we two are one
And I live once again.
