Nightmare Turns Into Reality

“I love you” frozen on my lips.
Your hands that are on my hips,
But your hands turn cold and
Bony. Your skin turns into sand
Castles that are knocked over by
Ocean waves as it vanishes as I try
To remember what everything felt
Like, but it is really blurry. You melt
As as the sun carries you away
To somewhere else. In the archway
Is where you stand and shadowy
Figure of my memory with that holy
Light disappearing into complete
Darkness down a one way street.
My eyelids that are struggling to
Open, but I know within the blue
Vastness like the Pacific Ocean
You are gone, things in slow motion.
