give me a pinch
let me know its real
have dreams become real
or has real created new dreams
I have felt you inside my mind
so often I know every line
every single feature
familiar as home
never say never
never is only a myth
whispered hopes haunting
then eyes open and vision fills
the breath is the scent imagined
the soft caress is the warmth
the gentle smile is life
lost inside this now
you don't know me
no reason that you would
yet you have been my dream
and now you have become real
can I ever find a way to leave you
when even sleep makes me sad
to impatient for tomorrow
afraid you aren't real
I want to beg you
kneel down and plead
never make me suffer again
believing you are only illusion
I never want to doubt these days
feel you are only that dream
knowing I need more
need you as real
Lovely...and loverly.. and deeper than physical is real. I especially enjoy how it reminds the reader that we are that essence of ourselves and it can be 'seen' even when the flesh is not present. ~Rain
ReplyDeleteThe way you wrote this poem suggests a circular, never-ending quality. The stanza that grabbed me and won't let go is, "Can I ever find a way to leave you when even sleep makes me sad, too impatient for tomorrow; afraid you aren't real."
