The times your absence hurts the most is when I wake up knowing I have dreamed of you, but cannot remember the dream. Like a person groping in the dark for a light switch, I try frantically to reach for some recollection to bring the memory back. I try to recall even the slightest detail… where we were, what happened between us – even a single word you spoke to me; anything to pull the recollection of you back before it fades away completely. But it is always in vain and I am never able to grasp the fragments before they fall away and out of my reach forever. It always feels as though I have been robbed of you… as though you were here in the room with me only moments ago and the memories of it have been stolen from me. Perhaps you were here… perhaps we are together in our dreams and the moment we wake is the moment you leave… And as always, when you leave… you take my dreams with you…
