Without Dreaming

I'm on my world, you are on your world. 
How can we meet if we're apart? 
Even if I stretch my arms I could never reach your hand. 
I could see your face. 
I could hear your voice. 
I could only be with you in my dream. 
I want to be with you, 
to be my hope, 
to be my strength and to be my friend. 
When shall I see your face? 
When shall I hear your voice? 
When shall I be with you without dreaming?

Verlena S. Walker Date: 5/9/2014 11:36:00 PM Doris, this is a beautiful poem about loving someone and dreaming of being with that someone. I enjoyed my visit and just kept the faith. Verlena Login to Reply Doris Jamoner Date: 5/10/2014 1:17:00 AM Thank you so much for dropping by. I am looking forward to read your poems.

Wayland Bunch Date: 5/9/2014 11:28:00 PM I understand this poem. It takes some patience. A LOT of patience and also some action on both parts, but if it's meant to be it will, good luck and great work. Login to Reply Doris Jamoner Date: 5/10/2014 1:19:00 AM patience is one of the things that is difficult to have but its fruit is sweet.
