Dreams and Reality

A whisper of a voice Sweetly speaking of love And a slight brush of hand Soft across the collarbone. Sweet Dreams, My Love No Tears You'll Now Cry. Simply a dream, A lush cloud above your head Raining fairy tales down Flooding you with false hope. Close Your Eyes, My Love No Bad Things You'll Now See. Sitting in a world created by want Legs crossed and arms folded Head hanging with a smile on soft lips Pretending, dreaming again. Wake Now, My Love No Facade You'll Now Show. Lost inside your head Spinning in endless circles Heart pounding so fast and furiously Breathing in gasps and sobs. Look There, My Love The Truth You'll Now Find. His hand on hers Their lips connect as one Hearts race, filled with love And you, a shadow in the dust. See Now, My Love Hear Words Spoken Soft. Breathing so soft and yet so hard Foreheads pressed and eyes closed Words exchanged that make you scream But silence surrounds you as does darkness. Hush Now, My Love For You'll Now Never See Him Again.

Wow! that's some dream....great imagination. Everyone must have experienced some wild, romantic dream such as this. It connects. Ah, a musician! I'm retired, but spent 50 years in one orchestra or another, most recently Cincinnati. Thanks for your kind words about my stuff. Love, Daver
