Let Me Dream

The song that is playing 

Reminds me of you

Takes me back when we first kissed


The touch of your lips

Filled my poor heart with bliss

It felt like a dream come true


And from the verse to the bridge

Where there's breaking of hearts

The singer croons I love you


I swear the world could end right there

Because I loved you too


So barman pour me a drink

Double scotch on the rocks

Let me dream...

About a girl I used to know

Should have never let her go

How I miss her so much... 


Mix vodka and soda

Bubbling with joy

Let me dream...

About a woman that made me feel

The man I dreamed to be

Play that song one more time

Let me dream

I imagine many people can relate to this poem. This line grabbed me: "Let me dream... About a woman that made me feel The man I dreamed to be".

Definitely a woman is not separate or apart from man...without her there's no dream...no love

Hi Arturo, Sometimes dreams last forever and are repetitive in our lives, who knows maybe someone exactly the same as the love you had, is waiting just around the corner! Life goes on and being the romantic you are, everything is possible! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Dreaming's good - carrying a torch so long, not so much. LOL

This is so beautiful and romantic, as moments unfold. Longing is evident, as that sweet ache of love lingers. Your heart upon the page. In a dream, anything is possible. ~ Brandy
