Traped in the wake of a dream,
the ripples are your smile, touch, and loveingness,
dreams aren't often said to come true,
So many aren't this lucky, if they only knew
MY dream, is you, is prue and true
Most dreams the words are forgotten
this one i can't find enough words to say
words could never be enough, so sometimes silent
my dream, glimmers, love reigns down
my bestfriend, who can i tell all to?
my hope, is it not in you i place i'll my faith?
My love, you are my dream, i love you,
you've taught me dreams do come true

Welcome aboard, hibby716...

>Traped in the wake of a dream,

Missing a "p"

>the ripples are your smile, touch, and loveingness,

Look up loveingness in the dictionary.

>dreams aren't often said to come true,
>So many aren't this lucky, if they only knew
>MY dream, is you, is prue and true

I think you meant, "pure."

>Most dreams the words are forgotten
>this one i can't find enough words to say
>words could never be enough, so sometimes silent
>my dream, glimmers, love reigns down
>my bestfriend, who can i tell all to?

Best friend is 2 words.

>my hope, is it not in you i place i'll my faith?

I think you meant "all" and not "I'll."

>My love, you are my dream, i love you,
>you've taught me dreams do come true

Not much was fresh or clean here... Too many typos and the punctuation ran amuck. Next, you used caps but they weren't consistent. I thought this was slightly clever though...

Traped in the wake of a dream,
the ripples are your smile

I would have liked to have seen this packed with modifier like the about in place of nonexistence form, and or consistent rhyme and meter to back it up.

Happy writing,
Regards,
Always Lisa
