Mystic Rose Rose Poet Sonnet

Only In My Dreams

Only in dreams can you truly be mine 
for it is only in sleep that you smile 
Like a star in the sky I can see you shine 
only when you walk me down the aisle 
Only in my dreams hours cease to exist 
like the handles of time turning in accord
love slips inside like perfume on my wrist 
setting me on fire like a flimsy chord
Only in my dreams do you wear cologne 
the only evidence of your auric presence 
a touch of Jovan musk mingled with your own 
and soon I have found your elective essence 

Only in dreams can you truly be all mine 
like a star shining, I only covet the shine.
