Tell Me I'm Dreaming

Just a Poem inspired by lost love.

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
By: Richard Roberson

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When I lie here at night
Thinking of you
and fighting the strife
Wondering what could have been
and all that I had
I miss you now.
Is that really so bad?
I want you back, it hurts.
Why can't you leap into my arms.
And teach me the worth.
Of your Warm hugs
And tender soft kisses
A blissful want
Everything - I miss it.

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When I look in the mirror
And see your face still
I want you here, nearer
Closer so you're the only one
Who hears me whisper
that you're my only one.
My hope and my pledge
my divine want and need
Help me, I'm falling off the edge.

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When your I fantasize still
about the nights that we shared
and my eyes begin to spill
The same essence that some nights
you caused, and broke my resolve
making the madness continue to bite.
I see your face, yet again
and crying I am
unable to win.
A tinging pain, like a thorn in my side
Please come back
I continue to cry

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When I look over your old letters
And see your last messages
my heart becomes the debtor.
A plain clothed sweater, a patchwork mess
The pain to much
Just lay me to rest.
You said once before that you loved me so
If that's true now
then theres one thing I know
You'll love me forever, so don't push away
Give me another last chance,
and I'll make you stay.

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When you say the words
you've found someone else.

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When the knife passes my chest.

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When it hurts this much

Tell Me I'm Dreaming
When love branches from Lust.

Just. . .Tell Me. . .

I'm Dreaming.

Wow....I thought that was so beautiful and so touching. I can only wish that the man I last broke up with is thinking even half of those thoughts. There were a few lines that were a little difficult with the flow and I think an extra word in the 3rd stanza, 2nd line but overlooking that I loved it.

Lovely, lovely, lovely...
