Embracing a Dream

I knew you were someone very special When I embraced your lovely smile today I knew because of its perfect beauty I wanted more moments like this to stay Filling my day with an enchanting beauty Making my former thoughts easily replaced For I found myself floating on air today When I was swept away by your lovely face I found my mind was easily captured And my thoughts were no longer my own My heart was beating very rapidly As I began dreaming of making you my own Like the leaves falling throughout Autumn So I also found myself easily swept away By a refreshing wind leaving me so helpless Easily filled with a desire for you to stay I knew I had to find new ways each day So that you might for a moment notice me For since the first moment I saw you I found my heart would never again be free I had to choose the perfect time and place Where we might be able to sit side by side So I might have the chance to let you know How much I really wanted you to share my life I found each night when I would try to sleep The vision of your smile would keep me awake And my many dreams would be so beautiful As within each I would feel your embrace I begin to realize what I had hoped for Would one day soon become so very real And the first moment your hand touched mine That second for my heart and mind was ideal That love had found a very lovely place Within my wanting heart that special day For the blessing of your genuine smile I found days later in my life would stay The blessing which really happened days later As the soft beauty in your face embraced me Was totally reaffirmed in a single instant When you said you also shared the same dream.
