Jennifer Dreaming

It started with a kiss
Like from one of the romantic scenes
That Shakespeare wrote about
But where are you now?
Lost in the night?
Running?
Last time I saw you
You shivered in the cold
I wanted so much to hold you
To keep you warm, never to let you go
But you had that fragile look
Of a hurt child, desperate to escape
Into the torment of time
In this eternal torture of despair
Searching for you
To show you the love
I never got a chance to give you
My dreams fade
From months into years
Of a time that started with a kiss
And ended up in tears
