In my Dreams...

You don’t love me

That much I can see

That much I know

That much you show

 

But in my dreams

You love me

My desire for you runs free

And everything is as it should be

 

I don’t have to wait for you to see me

I don’t have to make wish after wish

For love that I want

For love that I need

 

In my dreams…

Your lips find mine

So soft and kind

And sparks fly

 

In my dreams…

Every kiss is fire

Your body I admire

Every touch is lightning

 

But oh, it’s frightening

When I wake

How there’s nothing of you to take

Another day without you I must face

 

Lonely and aching

Watching and faking

Smiles and laughs

When all I have

Are my dreams.

The safest place to preserve love even if it hurts... We can roam freely in our dreams where we can love our beloved without any boundaries, no hiding, only passion of love will flow and every touch will feel to the core of the heart... Your way of expressing the honest way of love is admirable Tessa my frnd... Another write that has so much for the reader to feel... I can tell you I feel the same way...

Sincerely
Dhiman

So beautifully bittersweet. I know so well of dreams, and the worlds there that can keep us alive somehow, keep us happy. You express it so powerfully, in waking to a world so distant from the soul.

Thank you for your review. I wish I could remember to post my other poem that I wrote which is similar to this one. I wrote it so long ago and it was a good piece.

There is much more awakening in you now that will flow out like a river. This I know, dear poet. :)

[Tessa Melendez]

Oh, I don't know about that. I struggle to write poems. I mean - if I have feelings for someone and write them a poem, it comes out pretty easily and beautifully, but sometimes requires another draft because, I lose my rhyme scheme halfway through. Nonetheless, I happen to be MUCH better at writing stories, my friend. THEY flow out of me like a river all day long. Whether or not they make it onto paper or this site...that's another story. :)

[An owl on the moon]

Ah, I look forward to more stories then! And of course, if your heart is filled with love for someone and poetry flows out, I look forward to that as well. :)

I wish I still had the poems I gave to my Angel. They were beautiful and made her cry happy tears. Unfortunately, I didn't post them and she will forever have them. But, if you wish for stories, there are two out here on the site. I've been awaiting a friend that had an interest in reading and would love to give reviews on my chapters. And there are poems about my loves and things out here as well. I patiently await your kind reviews, friend, and I shall find the time to continue reviewing your work. :)

[An owl on the moon]

I so wish you could still have those poems from your Angel as well. May those beautiful memories keep your soul lifted. May your weekend bring you so much joy in writing more. :)

The pleasure of dreams taking away the pain, only to be woken to the pain of no longer dreaming, separated only by a silent sigh.
Very well thought out piece. Well written, Thank you for sharing.
