I woke this morning,
The last day of the millenium,
Eyes overflowing,
Cheeks soaked,
And fear paralyzing me.

It all seemed so real,
The dream.
The emotions, feelings
Were real.
There's evidence on my cheeks
And the salty tears
Still in my eyes.

I'm not sure who you were.
Were you a friend?
Were you family?
Were you a stranger?
I don't know.

You were familiar
We were close
I don't know who you were,
But the pain of losing you
Is so much more than I can bear.

That pain is still with me.
It will live in me
Forever.
