Invisible Love

His warm breath caresses my face As his fingertips gently brush through my hair I stare into the eyes of the man I loved for so long and feel safe Secure I look into his eyes searching for the answers to the many questions that swim in my mind He softly kisses my lips As if to say I know and everything will be fine Tears fill my eyes and stream down my cheeks He brushes them away Kissing them one by one Holding me tighter, pulling me closer No verbal words have been spoken yet we are having the most intense conversation My tears cease My mind calms Sleep begins to overcome me Before I drift completely to sleep I reach to see if he is still there and smile when I realize he is I kiss his hands and wrap them around me I can no longer fight the battle and sleep finally conquers me and wins I dream of this man This beautiful man at times I don’t deserve The man that took me so long to find And now he is all mines My eyes flutter open and I smile lazily and reach for him Cold space greets my searching hands Fully awake I frantically search for him but he doesn’t appear Reality sets in Why can’t I find him? Cause he was never there
