Dreaming Reality

Sometimes I find

things I cannot describe

Taste and touch unknown

distractions overwhelming

heart stopping as I get closer

senses failing I wonder

how hard can it be?

Reach over

pull you closer to me

somehow I will discover

why the impulse could never surface

until long after you're too far away

to continue wondering

how your lips would feel

much closer to mine

whispering against mine

I can't believe I'm still hoping

for a chance happening

something bringing you much closer

wishing bring more musings

ruining my poetry

with love songs

and painful longings

when I can just sleep

and meet you in my dreams

where we can be

my subconscious reality
