In Love's Shadow

There is peace in my heart as I gaze into the fire embers room full of shadows that sway as the final flame flickers. It is now in the quiet of night as the rest of the world sleeps that you come to me; again, we love sharing times past we lay together. In shadow time the veils fall away. Once more our world's touch. Again we are together in spirit, now living in the shadow of love. Yet always the shadows beckon, enticing me, exciting me, pulling ever deeper into their depths and as I slumber we are reunited.

This poem is such a feel good moment, to read and relish, and wish this kind of moment to each person who has been in love, lost someone, but can be reunited in a dream. Written beautifully!
