POETRY: I HAD A DREAM

I am sitting here thinking of the Love that we share...
Hoping that you truly understand just how much I care.

With every breath that I breathe, My Love for you grows...
I would yell it from a roof top, so everyone knows.

I want to spend the rest of my life with you, this I am sure...
Because the Love that we share is true and pure.

God has placed you in my life to Love, Cherish and Hold...
and for this reason...I will treat you like Gold!


PART 2

My thoughts sail through your calm waters
and my heart soars in the heavens above,
Or a pristine snow simply left to the shade
There is no calmer peace than your love.

An eclipse casts a light of mystery to the land
conjuring my wildest dreams set in a shade surreal,
If somehow I could capture that wordless sight
Only then could I explain how I feel.

Perchance your feelings fall to a cobalt hue
And your heart wanders aimlessly in despair,
Know that I will always stand by your side
And fill you with love, because I will be there.


PART 3

I had the strangest dream
A couple days ago,
It had love and betrayal,
It had truth and foresight.

I was standing on a patio
Of a rich-person's estate.
I was completely alone
In the darkness of the night.

I had a fine tuxedo
Complete with a vest and tie,
Pure leather dress shoes
Pacing along the shale walkway.

Then she appeared,
My human-like angel.
An off-white cashmere dress
With a gold threaded lace.

The way her hair flowed
Was tall grass in the wind.
Her smile was instant paralysis,
Her eyes and pearl necklace were one.

I asked for her hand
And she showed me a band of single carats.
I led her along the path
Beside the lush floral arrangement.

We sat at an elegant table
Covered with a silk cloth.
A flickering candle
Enough light for a star-crossed pair.

We dined together
Underneath the starry ceiling,
I ordered the oldest red wine
She got a little tipsy.

Then appeared from behind
Two other roses I loved.
Both had icicles of mascara
They cried The River Of Love.

The first one was my best-friend.
She helped me through the rough times.
I always thought she liked me more
And I never told her my feelings for her.

The second was my ex,
She left me for no apparent reason.
We rarely kept in touch
And I always wanted her to come back.

The one across the table
was my current girlfriend.
I haven't known her for long
But I can tell she really likes me.

The three loveliest women
Wanted me to choose between them.
My night started with unmerciful bliss
Will now end without my most vital organ.

I didn't choose my ex
She broke my heart before.
I doubt she cared about my feelings
I was her board-game.

I didn't choose my best-friend,
We've been through so much.
But who would I turn to if it failed?
Sometimes 2nd is better.

And I chose you,
The angel who likes to steal.
You are my keyholder
So now you own my heart completely.


PART 4

Whenever I think of your name,
My heart skips a beat.
I feel for my baby,
And I feel for you deeply.
Everyday I think of you
My love only grows.
Your smile will melt me,
Your radiance- glows.

I've reached in my chest,
And placed my heart in your hands.
It was like a dream come true,
When, to me you ran.
You're my angel
that was sent from the Heavens above,
To teach me to care,
And teach me to love.

With you I will spend eternity.
But, do you feel the same for me?
Would you say, "yes", and become my wife?
Would you stay with me for the rest of your life?
These questions are brought forth
From the depths of my soul,
Because, to take your hand is my only goal.



PART 5

Wish you could see what is in my eyes,
That your true love could be before your eyes,
I wish I could take your past pain away,
Hoping that you will see that I want to love you today
Waiting and wishing we could be together someday,

Wish you could see what's in my eyes,
That I love you with all my heart and soul
Hoping to have your heart to hold,
I have fallen so deep for you I only wish you could
See that without you I have all this loneliness in me,

Wish you could see what's in my eyes,
That knowing you love someone else makes my heart sigh,
I want you to know what your heart means to me,
That I realy think with our two hearts together we could be free,

I want you to know I love you and I want to embrace you, and that
I will wait for the day I can steal your heart and we could fly away,

Wish you could see what's in my eyes.


PART 6

Forest of life, in the jungle of your love
Dream of mine, constantly materialized
Barren deserts, where the grass never grows green
There I flourish with the abundance of your love

Lofty dreams met with harsh realities
Of love meant to be, but never fulfilled
Wilderness of thoughts, wondering where I was
Suddenly appeared... to replenish all I've lost

Life is life, to you I give all I have
Love is love, from you I receive all I deserve
Memory vanished, nothing remembered from the past
Together alone, we'll celebrate our love

Padlock of life, bounded in true wedlock
No way out but to love till we die
Windows of love opening wide in our eyes
Together in love we'll share our pride



PART 7

With you, time stands still,
being embraced in your arms feels so warm.
It is here I want to be,
comforted by your sweet embrace.

In this moment,
eternity sweeps by,
leaving us behind without a care,
yet we don't mind, since we have each other.

Tears stream down my face,
while you're leaving me.
My hand is reaching out for you,
never to feel the heat of love again.

Every second feels like an hour,
a lifetime of pain devoured by one minute.
Do you realize how it feels to be away from you?
A moment feels like an eternity.


PART 8

Tonight, my love, just close your eyes.
I want you to watch me with your heart.
Hold me tight and don't let go,
forever we've been so far apart.

Open your ears, put your head on my chest,
can you hear my heart beating?
Now look into my eyes,
do they still seem so decieving?

Take my hand and lead me slowly
to a point of no return.
No stopping, no turning back,
the bridge between us is about to be burned.

In the first moments, as things sink in,
tears form in my eyes.
And as suddenly as it began,
the pain ended to my suprise.

A night of passion continued on
and then came to an end.
Dusk quickly faded into dawn,
a new day did begin.

And as you crept out my window
to go and start your day,
You softly whispered, "I love you,
and no one can take that away."



PART 9

You are there, in my mind, when I'm awake.
You are there when I am dreaming.
You are there when I am happy, you are there when I am sad.
Your everpresent being leaves me in a trance
that lasts without time and past eternity.
Through the lives of those who love,
and through lives of those who have lost that love.
You are always there, pursuing me
in a way that tears me in all directions-
a way that leaves me forever unsatisfied
and feeling without, until I once again feel you deep in me.
Deep in me, at the foundation of my exasporating existance,
around me, enveloping me in your love,
finally replacing my half-eaten soul
with a whole one, united
from the beautifulness that is we.


10

I gaze at thee
As you walk my way
Lips parted, eyebrows raised
Your arms reach out
I come to you
Our bodies barely graze
Sweet scent lingers
On the tip of my nose
I set my eyes on you
A blush of red
Settles on your cheeks
And I know you feel this too
The attraction is overwhelming
Growing as the music flows
Step by step
We waltz our way
Into a love that quickly grows
Not one word is spoken
Just the beating of our hearts
Soon this song will end
But a new melody will start
You hold me so gently
Have me locked in this trance
With our hearts beating wildly
From this enchanting Lover's Dance


11

The simple sensation of your caress
Is all I need to believe you care for me
I look into your eyes to see clearness of love
When we hold each other, I am in heaven
Inevitability, our love
Fate touches my hand, I became scared
You walk into my life without worry
Now you see flaws in me
You don?t believe or trust me
When together, we are looked at
By friends, enemies, and relatives
Who do not see a sweet, wonderful, caring person
Seeing beauty is not what draws me
Your intelligence boggles my mind
Confusion, fear is what your mind holds
The only thing real in my life is you
If I lose what controls my mind and spirit
The rest will be ripped away
I love you more than life itself


12

Like the mystery of the crescent moon,
My dreams rhythmic atmosphere radiates love's tune,
I can feel my sweetheart's eloquence stirring my longing soul,
Her responding desire only time will unfold.

As my mind's eye reflects past passions of crime,
The question appears, "Can perfection be divine?"
And then an angel gently whispers through the softness of my sleep,
"Don't let love pass, it's all yours to keep."

And as to your love's response, its not as immortal as it seems,
Destiny can be carved through the shadow of your dreams.
For love such as this surely never dies;
Search deep your heart and there the answer lies.

Destiny and fate both await the fragrance of love's mould,
As once prophesied by the magicians of old.
Upon waking, fortunes favours eroded my inhibition
prompting such a dare,
For nowhere on earth can beauty be found so rare.

For somewhere within such a vast universe untold,
My sweetheart's love for me reciprocates the desire of my soul.



13

As you were kissing my lips
so softly
I thought to myself
how I love you so
With your arms around me
so tight
I thought to myself
that you must love me, too.

We always talk about getting married
and having kids
I think to myself
do dreams really come true?
You always tell me dreams come true
because you say I'm your dream
I think to myself
how sweet you are and how I love you.

Soon enough
we'll grow old together
I'll think to myself
how time flew by
Not much after
we'll die together
I'll think to myself
how wonderful my life with you was.

Now we will be with each other
forever and ever.



14

I want to be able to learn from you
And to see love as something new
Be able to feel love as it was meant to be
To Watch it grow from inside of me
I want to see your face light up so bright
When you see the twinkle in my sight
To bring you happiness from miles away
And never let my passion cast astray
For thoughts of you never cease
I wish for our hearts to be at peace
With one another, together sharing our love
As one. To watch it soar the skies like a dove,
Endless like the flight it takes
On a journey to a magical place.
A dream world built for two, Just you and I
Here alone, with the calm of the high tide,
Overflowing the shore like the emotions I try to hide
Slowly revealing myself to you like the shore to the moon
Letting you know I will always be true
So take my hand and walk by my side,
As we walk into Paradise



15

Unlike stars
in deepest night
More like lustre
of soft blue light

Clear sky eyes
like ocean dawns
Crashing waves
on shoreline stones

Quiet beauty,
like buried pearls
Unseen gems
from other worlds

That's what you are
pure and true
The dawning sun,
my morning blue

Heart runs through
crimson valleys
Running through
theses darkened alleys

Red rose rivers
gently flowing
Run together
in loving knowing

Ruby rose,
petals falling,
loving words,
echoed calling

Don't need riches
to see me through
You're my treasure,
my morning blue





16

The night falls
. . . like the sweet
hush of hesitation
here between the two of us,
Our hands move,
Seeking the light.

We draw our bodies
into familiar shapes. . .

. . . remembering
in the dark,
how we feel.




17

The blazing sun blinds the sight from my eyes,
And memories past are forgotten... and yet,
The dream that remains disguises the lies,
And all that is left is your faint silhouette.

But, time can't diminish the vision of you,
Nor let me despair at dreams I forget,
And I'll always remember the girl I once knew,
Instead of the thought of that faint silhouette.





18

Suspend me in your night so dark
Release your demons upon my heart
Take over my body with your hands
Arouse my hungered love for you
Kiss me passionately over and over
Press your lips to my own moist touch
Wrap your arms around my body thus
Like climbing ivy upon the castle wall
Let us be close as your breath upon my neck
