Where Shadows Walk The Night Early mist bringing a damp chill yet the sun shines brightly A night spent without touch to thrill of arms to hold tightly Lost in a dream world of desire where only phantom’s live A place my heart goes to acquire love that my soul may give Strolling along a lonely beach where shadows walk the night I hold open my arms to reach a lover in moonlight As shapeless vapours drift my way I reach into the dream Molding them like a living clay I create my own theme Lovers embraced beneath the stars, music plays on the wind Unknown ecstasy would be ours as passions we appease I weave the scene with care and skill knowing my heart’s desire My fantasies again I’ll fill each night as I retire Though in my life there’s no romance hopes and dreams I have still Someday a man will take the chance and all my dreams fulfill Karen Torbiak 2002© Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Karen, yours is only the second poem that I have looked at on this site. I think it is gorgeous! I enjoy beyond mere words when someone writes from their soul. I once felt as this poem states. It is indeed a hauntingly beautiful poem. Good friends are like a vintage wine. |

Karen, I think this is the answer, we will just have really wonderful dreams, and believe they are real life. As for the real life, let's just pretend it doesn't exist. Gosh, I like this so much, you know I feel just the same way. Valentine Hugs. Sandra |

I love this! Romantic longing and dreaming that I can understand. But something happened to my dreams recently, and they started taking on a physical existence of reality. Keep dreaming, and keep sharing those romantic thoughts. They inspire! |
