Analysis of Confusion



At 2am I sit here alone in the darkness,
Your voice I hear across the oceans.
The smile I see on your lovely face,
Half dreams half reality...
Tears stream down my face.
At dawn's breaking I hear your love calling,
Mysterious, mysterious...
How did your heart find mine?
In such amazing ways as if it's fate?
The simple things you wrote...a real man.
It made me cry and laugh...
Strange, it feels like fate, so far away yet close
As if we've met before life...
Silently but I somehow know you...
Through the dark clouds casting over me,
You see the bright sun rising,
Through the twilight of dawn...
Few words said but we seem to know
Each other's dreams, hopes and heart's voice,
Half dreams half reality...
Yet I see your lovely face in the distance.
Your mysterious presense - I'm surprised and confused,
Thousands of miles, the distance between us...
Yet our hearts seem to be so close to each other
In amazing ways. Is this a dream or reality?
