It turns to a dream That will never come true. A dream of caresses, Of forbidden kisses. Your hand on my cheek As your lips brush mine. My heart beats sadly As these visions continue.

It reminds me of my.. http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/RisseGirl/391014/ Angel of despair, carved in rock, Cry your pebble tears. No longer can the torment be heard, For it rests within the center. Frozen in a time of pain, The tears, they just keep coming. But, as your desperate cries continue, Not a word is heard.
