Eternal Dream

The day winds down and in comes night As a welcome relief from life's dreary sights I slowly snuggle into the waiting arms of sleep To a world where, I hope, I wont have to weep I float away to a happy place Filled with thoughts of you and your face Of your smile, your grace and your presence Of You – my life's essence The bad memories fade as in you come To the world in my heart, that was once glum But now there's happiness every where, a joyful song Resonates in my mind and for you I long It is only a dream, my brain tells me What you see is an illusion, not reality But thoughts of you seem to have a touch physical Your caress so real, not virtual My dream ends when dawns morning Though I wake up hearing melodious birds sing I miss you in every atom of mine And long to hold you, till the end of time I wish you could be forever with me So your touch I could feel, your face I could see Or sleep forever, to God, would be my plea And dream of you for eternity
