In Dreams

I can still feel you in my dreams.
             Skin
                 so calloused to the world
                 so tough to get through
                 softened at a touch
                 letting me know the real you
             Tension
                    gathered round your spine
                    crying for some relief
                    dispersed to my palms
                    from care you're freed
            
             Strength
                     resting on shoulders
                     far too well acquianted
                     with the burdens of life
                     that had right then faded
             Breathing
                      slowing it pace
                      so calm and serene
                      too much in fact
                      for the hectic life you lead
             Beating
                    of a heart, so soft
                    that I never knew
                    for sure if you loved me
                    as much as I loved you
Can you feel me too?
