eternity

Eternity
I lie in bed and pray, that you will think of me. I cry until my eyelids close, and dream-eternity. I wake to sunlight on my face, for a moment I forget. Then a cloud passes by, and I realize, this is it. I carry on throughout the day, feigning joy and feeling pain. I long to gaze upon your face, and share a smile, an embrace. The day is drawing to an end, and still I think of you. I try to relax, yet in my mind, I wonder what to do. So now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord, my soul will keep. And should you chance to think of me, know that I love you-eternity.
