Sweet Dreams...

Oh yes! Don't you love how your best dreams can seem so real, but when you go to reach for them they vanish? Well this is kind of like that.

We were laughing under the stars

Building scenes of our future

Picking names for our children

And planning our trip to the islands

What free times we had together

We made sure to remember

Without the memories, I'd be so lost

Stuck in your embrace

Mesmerized by your eyes

Tired and weak from your love

Nothing about you makes me emotionless

I loose my mind when I see you

My breath quickening and slowing

The light touch of lips against lips

Everything is so strong and electrifying -

Sometimes I stay in those dreams forever

But then everything comes crashing down

One day, those beautiful dreams will become real

When they do.. I will not give them up for anyone

Excellent write. Keep writing like this.

[Nancy Lee Shrader]

A fantastic write. Well done

[universalove]

Happiness and joy is what you make it and how long does it last. It is up to you to work on it. Just remeber that your first love is yourself. You really don`t need anyone to make you happy cause you can do that all by yourself. Love is give and take of the highest of respect. Not lust of a feeling that can come and go not matter how good it is. Always a lady first. GOOD WRITE

Free verse is not my favourite. But you present your message with clarity couched in well written poetic prose ivor
