Heartlore

By Tagen

I fight the wind,
To get to you.
&
At night I dream of you.
 
Shadow prayers
Blood dusk
innocence caught 
Unawares.
 
The tyrant knows
&
My father follows
So, 
I'll never get to hold you close
 
But I am yours in the simplest of ways:
A smile, a wave, a hello.
 
Though forever in my heart, I'm not the one with yours, so
I just dream.

    Don't dream for too long. Thanks for sharing nonetheless.
