Dreaming

Every night I fall asleep Hoping to see you in my dreams I close my eyes and you appear My heart starts beating faster You smile as you reach out to me I willingly give you my hand You lead me to my favourite place And pull me close so we can dance A million stars are shining so bright I see them all reflected in your eyes You hold me close all night long While you gently sing into my ear All too soon it’s time to go Even though I could stay like this forever “Please don’t go.” I beg in vain Knowing full well you have to leave “Come find me.” you smile As you gently kiss my hand “I don’t know where to look.” I reply sadly as you let go of me “Just follow your heart,” you whisper “You’ll find me when the time is right.” The dream fades as I open my eyes I sigh heavily as I get out of bed I scrutinize my surroundings As I go through my daily routine Constantly searching for the man Who will sweep me off my feet
