Race To the Pillow

“Race to the Pillow” Thoughts of love seem to secure my heart in webs of roses pedals and candy hearts The feeling of love my hide from my heart but the thoughts of love keep my eyes open Fluttering flip flops in thy stomach may keep their distance but her smile has me smiling If only in a dream of unselfish images of the angel’s laughter I have yet to meet When my eyes close out the brightness of yesterday I see the most beautiful sight in all the world The woman who carries my once broken and lonely heart in her tender hands no longer cracked With a smile only the angels of God could ever create I can see my forever for the first time To dream a little dream that creates such hope for tomorrow and beyond yesterday’s sadness This journey of nightly dreams slowly revealing the face of my future Dreaming will finally succumb to reality when the angels have built her just for me She will not be perfect for anyone but me with her loving arms around me in warmth Let love become the love I no longer have to close my eyes for but keep open to cherish daily Until the day my love has engaged with myself in an embrace of soul shattering happiness Until I can feel her lips whispering upon my lips I love you Until the dreams are shattered like the rock that holds my diamond that keeps it safe I will race to the pillow and return to where love is always waiting for me
