Dreams

A new poem I wrote on November 30, 2009. It's called Dreams.

My eyes lightly flutter open
After a sweet night's sleep
Reality starts to sink in
I hold back the tears and inhale deep

A moment ago I held you
A second ago you kissed me
A minute ago I felt your skin
A moment ago I was happy

When the starry night sky surrounds me
And I rest my heavy eyes
I welcome sleep with an excited heart
And drift off with anxious sighs

You're in my loving arms again
You're kissing my hands, my cheeks, my lips
You're locking your sweet blue eyes with mine
You're grasp tight onto my hips

We're laughing like wild and crazy kids
As we wrestle and roll on the ground
We're playing pool, you're kicking my butt
While in your cocky ego I drown

We're walking hand-in-hand outside
And hand-in-hand while in the car
Hand-in-hand while beneath the moon
While gazing at a blanket of stars

You're holding me tight against your chest
As we dance across the floor
I nestle my face in the crook of your neck
Thinking "Forever and always I'll be yours"

My eyes lightly flutter open
After a sweet night's sleep
And reality starts to sink in
So I hold back the tears and inhale deep

Your great big smile disappears
Your blue eyes fade away
The pain starts to settle in
So I bow my head and pray

Peace then settles over me
And a new day I now can face
For with each passing minute
Brings me closer to my favorite place

Soon I'll be back in your arms
With my joy bursting at the seams
Cause nothing makes me happier
Then our dates we have within my dreams
