If life were like my fantasy You would be right here with me I’d know your skin and feel your touch And you would feel it just as much I’d know your lips and feel your kiss I’d fall into its sweet abyss With kisses soft and tender too In my dreams I’m wrapped in you You hold me through my sleeping night You’re next to me, we’re tucked up tight I wake with thoughts of you at dawn And more come as the day goes on As we talk through day and night I’m trying hard with all my might To keep a foot in light of day But fantasies, they have a way Of crowding out all other thoughts Suspending time, a moment caught Catch me…..share this dance with me Kiss me….. share this fantasy Hold my hand and lead me dear Touch my skin and pull me near Kiss me…. hold me next to you Kiss me…. do you want me too? Breathless, passion in the air Can you feel it? Take me there Hold me…. for I cannot breath Hold me…. is this make-believe? If this be dream, don’t let me know If this be real, don’t let me go I’m lost within my fantasy You want to get lost here with me? If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Im smiling and shaking my head... remembering how it felt to be this sweetly inspired... this is a cadence kissed gem of anticpation enjoy it dear poetess... the fantasy makes for a wonderful muse... reality usually takes the words away. (forgive my moth cynicism)I think Im just plain tired. well done Tracy..love the format of the second part. jm You're the hidden cost and the thing that's lost in everything I do. |

Now Tracey, this is a delightful fantasy that merits testing in reality. Fantasy is great, it can help make you feel warm on cold lonely nights. But if you can get your hands on the real? Enough said. |

Karen, I see you understand. Nothing wrong with a little fantasy now and then is there? A man to fulfill all my fantasies? Now there’s a tall order, would have to be a helluva fella!!! Skyfyre, thank you, I’m so glad you liked this piece. Amy, thank you very much for the high praise. I’m flattered indeed to hear this from one who speaks so eloquently of love LoneWolf, so glad you enjoyed this. JM, yes, the inspiration here was sweet indeed and I am enjoying it a great deal. Thank you Kacy, I must say I couldn’t agree more. Nuff said!!! If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

I smiled when I read this because sometimes our fantasies are wanted as realities. Great write! Do or die! |

I, also, say to self too good to be true I'll wake any moment from this dream of loving you. If I do, if I wake... if it was all a fantasy in dream I'll still hold you tight hold at bay reality. For tonight I kiss you softly within a nameless place tonight we sleep together in the dream of this embrace. 'You, you were standin', I was there, two worlds collided...'. Night, Trace. Sweet dreams. |

Walt, fantasy, reality…where does one end and the other begin huh??? Domzi, how true, thank you Duncan, sigh. I think I like your poem better than mine…but then…I would, wouldn’t I??? Yours gave me sweet dreams and smiles to last the day. Loved the song line too…perfect Larry, glad this one sent you (as long as it doesn’t send you away from here!!! Lol) Alan, thank you, and glad I’m not the only one!! Wynter, so glad you enjoyed it. I enjoyed writing it Greeneyes, thank you for your kind comments Kay, so glad you found it magical and inviting. This part of my world is for me too. Ven, thank you, yes, beautiful does sum up this fantasy very well Noah, ahh, so glad you enjoyed this, for you are the prince of romantic fantasy. Hope yours comes true one day Sandra, rudely kicked out huh??? Love that way of expressing it!! Yes, this piece is happy, kind of how I feel these days If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Sometimes, a heart cannot live up to definition. Though, not yours...I will remember yours. |
