          Sweet Dreams


I kiss you softly and whisper low Your arms draw me so close,  
I long to tell you all I feel
But I just don't know how.
 
 
Your eyes look deep into my heart
Can you see yourself reflected there?
You are every breath I take
The longing is so hard to bear.
 
 
I've loved you for so very long,
You must have known by now
My heart just aches to tell you so
But yet I can't somehow.
 
 
The thunder sounds and I awake,
The tears come when I find,
I'm only dreaming once again,
And I've left you far behind.

Welcome to Passions!  So very heart
touching...the longing and the desire for
this love were felt strongly...it flowed
nicely and left me with a haunting ache.
Thank you for sharing this piece.  Beautiful
Writing~

Shy lady - This is a very sweet poem of longing and growth.

Let me be the first male in the forums to welcome you.  And a fortunate occurrence this is, too.  There are scalawags in here who you need to be very wary of *g*.  I am the only man in here you can believe.  So, please tell me all your secrets and I will be sure they are never told to everybody else like I did with other members in here (oops).

'Can you see yourself reflected there?'
