Dreamland- An African Woman's Wish

I'm in my dreamland
I wish I don't wake

It's here you look at me
It's here your smile I see
It's here I get your hug
It's here I'm not a bug

Blissful romantic tune
Lost in lust, high in the moon
Love life like Mills and Boon
I'm so not waking up soon

I'm in my dreamland
If I dare wake

I'll be back to dreams and bleak
I'll be back to hide and seek
I'll be back to hate and dread
I'll be back to beg your bread

I'm still in my dreamland
But I'm wide awake

Althoug I haven't been with Her ladies of the night since I was twenty-one yet still, She and this other Beautiful brunette in San Antonio my last, were Treasures. Although again I have only been with such three times in my life, the other in South Carolins, Columbia when I was nineteen again. But, the girl mentioned in this comment was the only one I ever saw again; three times back then in the seventy's
