Almost like a song

I lie here every night,

wishing , i could hold you tight;

as your beauty echoes softly through my mind,

as my heart,you gently entwine.

 

I feel your presence by my side,

as you gently unfold in my mind;

as we make love,i feel your soft skin,

as it caresses mine.

 

It was almost like a song,

the orchestra gently playing ;

as our bodies dance along,

then i awake, with tears in my eyes.

 

When i roll over to hold you,

i realize,it was just a dream;

as you,

lay gentle on my mind...

filled with music and sentiments ... i like especially how you point to the mind as that nugget that grows all our feelings ;)
