In My Dreams

Loretta Joseph

My spirit's been hurt
So deeply by your actions.
It literally turned me off
To all other attractions.

You were the one who
Broke down my wall,
Opened my heart to love
Not just to you, but to all.

On a pedestal
I held you up; you
Were what made me live
And never to give up.

What a fool I've become
To trust you to love me
How blind I was, how
Couldn't I see?

You were my world or
So it seemed,
When my eyes are closed
In my dreams.
