Found some inspiration from A Dream Within a Dream by Edgar Allan Poe
I wish only that I was his!
Watching, waiting until ‘mes’ (my)
Life is something different from what it is
Sad do the days go by
Alone until the time Death comes and I shall die
Then will you remember me?
Maybe then I will be free
From your love that was never mine
If only there was a sign,
That I am wrong
And I hear our love as if it were a song.
I hold my breath under the sea
Until I see Death again coming for me
He grasps my hand;
Suddenly I am upon the land
Why me is it that he would save?
He answers ‘You I know, you who can be much more brave’
And then he walks away
But I am not ready to stay
Unless with me right here you will lay
How far you are across this desert I am banned
And from where I now stand
There is no hope for ‘us’
So letting go, I have learned through the many years, I must.
