A fantasy worldexisting only for you and I.No interruptions, no cares.A longing glance, filled with love A dream come true,you allowed me tobe with you. To make youhappy is myone true desire. Whirling thoughts echoaround my head. Laughter let looseits frivolous sounds. In a worldexisting for us alone. A smile. A wink.Playfully we look at each otherignoring the beautyof the world around us. A warm embrace, a glass of winea crackling fire, the sound of rainsoft music fills the air.A love so tender, so richthis night can’t end. A tear falls from your eye! Why the sadness?I hear you crying. The dream is over,fantasy evolves into reality. You and I existonly withinthe deep recessesof my sleeping mind. I awaken, cold and alone.tears stain my cheeks. Wrapped in the cocoonof my blankets, I tryto find you again.
This is the perfect poem for Valentine’s Day. Fantasy/reality…it’s what our hearts make of it…even in dreams. Well done Rod!

oh heck…so sad…the being so close and then the waking up…i do hope you find that loved one again..
ReplyDeleteI just fell right into this. I know this lonely awaken…cold pillow cases and wrinkled sheets my only companions. We can feel our mates even before they are there, sometimes that is the hardest part of the journey in love…even more than the loss of someone is the waiting for them to arrive in patience. Enjoyed your words. ~ Rose
