If only I was a poet, I’d write the thoughts within
White-winged angels would sing, a heavenly song
Blessing our lifes, With an inner happiness

As we’d walk, under a shimmering white moonlit sky
Hand in hand, strolling towards the night of passion
The bed of roses, crumpled under our weight

This dream fades, as tears roll down the page
Smearing the ink, a world of fantasy I write

The thoughts of you, affect my mind
Finally you’re released, stuck on this page
As I write the prison, I visited in dreams
Ridding myself of memories of you forever

Only in dreams, you’d stay by my side
And make me smile, as days pasted by

But dreams don’t hold your presences
Or the taste of your lips, feel of your skin
All I can touch, is thoughts of you draining away through my grip

Sunlight shines, straight into my mind
Awakening, truth that lies inside
That you where never there that night

The place I dreamt, you wonder free
I wonder do you dream a place of me

The ink flows dry, reaching the end of a memory
Piles of pens litter the desk, each written a memory from my mind
If I could spare another pen, id write this memory all over again…

well then silly, to love this extremely, and to allow it to go away, maybe even push it away is self-destruction and just plain foolish....tell all, to her....my gosh, your a poet if I've ever read one...a truly talented and very sensitive writer.
