It Is You

When I close my eyes to go to sleep It is you I see in my thoughts You are standing there staring at me Watching me in my deep, deep sleep When I awake, you are still about I can feel you in me, inside and out I know you are heaven bound But, you protect me even though you are not around Now you are in a special place I cannot wait to touch your face Please forever stay in my dreams It is all I have of you it seems Holly P.

Very touching poem. I hope you find comfort not only in your dreams but from the friends and family around you and those you grow close to in the soup.

Holly, such dreams roll in rims... recalling a luv who crossed over the sea and burnt his boat. A very touching but perfect xpression.
