Questions in Poetry

How long did I dream about you?
How many days spent waiting,
Praying for your safety,
Pining and aching, those nights I'd dread waking,
To the sunrise alone, it's true,
For I'd much rather dream about you.

How long did I dream about you?
For the day you'd remember,
What we had together,
Leave your ghosts forever,
Cling to me as your tether,
And when we make it through,
I won't have to dream about you.

How long will I dream about you?
Knowing how you regret me,
And how fast you'll forget me,
Just after you've left me,
God help me, I'm such a fool.
How long will I dream about you?
