To Dream of Love for You

I dreamt I saw you dancing on the green grass. I dreamt this was the love I always wanted. But then I saw you fade in an opaque glass. How could I lose you? I feel I am haunted. There was a time once when we danced close together, When I would feel the warmth of your breath in a kiss, Felt passion, tingling the nape of my wretched neck. The feeling that you were near was a gift to me, A gem that was dear and loving, not to be lost. I treasure every move, every whimsical smile. I dreamt I saw you dancing on the green grass. I dreamt this was the love I always wanted. But then I saw you fade in an opaque glass. How could I lose you? I feel I am haunted. Alas, then my jealousy destroyed our perfect love. Uncertainty became the order of my days. So oft lonely days when I yearn for your sweet smile. Now, I feel I'm at the edge of a deep ravine, And there's no person ready to dry my hot tears, I can't go on without you; it's a painful shame. I dreamt I saw you dancing on the green grass. I dreamt this was the love I always wanted. But then I saw you fade in an opaque glass. How could I lose you? I feel I am haunted.

A poem of haunting longing. You lost a love because negative emotions of jealousy creeped into your mind. Now you regret over the love lost and pine for it. A poem where emotions of love and romance flow in seamlessly. Love poems are your forte, dear Victor.
