As I Weep
by Kara Danielle Weidner 

Once you lay down,
And drift into sleep,
Know that I am up,
Thinking of you as I weep.

Once the dreams begin,
Do you see someone else or me?
Do you mumble another's name;
Is it her face you see?

The minute you rise,
From your slumber,
Do you know what you dreamt,
And keep it locked under-cover?

Once another day is complete,
And you fall asleep,
Remember I am up thinking of you,
As I weep.
