Do You Believe In Dreams?


Have you ever had a dream
From which you didn't wanted to wake up?
I bet you did
But have you had a dream
That you didn't wanted to have?
Not because it was terrible,
Or bad , but because
You know it only happens in dreams
Today I had a dream
I dreamt I was beside you
I dreamt I was happy with you
I dreamt to love
I don't know if I can
As I don't even know you
I just know you exist
And you're looking for me
As I'm looking for you
What can I do to find you?
I've tried everything , but
You didn't showed up
Why do you hide from me?
Why don't you appear?
I need you so much...
...The moonlight is hitting my face
On the window...
It's night
I start thinking about you
How you are , how you speak , how you look at me...
But it's not real!
It's only a reverie , a daydream.
But I know!
That you exist , I know!
A soul in the crowd
Who comprehend me
Who can give me care
Who understands me
But where are you?
I've looked everywhere I could
For you , I would go to the infinite
But where are you
So you can see that my love for you
Is so endless as the world around us
You , are a drop in the ocean
Unbounded , blue , until the horizon
And I , am a sand grain
From an enormous beach without an end
I look at the ocean,
So distant from me
I imagine how you look
You eyes , your hair,
Your care , your... love
But when I'm back in reality
I see the distance between us
Sad vastness , with no guilt
Prevents the joy between two beings
Who love without knowing
Without meeting
Without seeing
How can I live with this?
I know one day I'll find you,
But when?
I've waited too long
And I'm in a hurry to live...
By your side...
In the stars I see
The gracious outline of your face
It's hard to identify , for I've never seen
But I dreamt
I spent my life waiting
While I look at the sky
And I see the moonlight shining at my face
Enlighten , oh Moon
My hope
That one day I'll find her
And with her I forever will be
Happy...
I don't know if I believe in my dream
I don't know if I can dream again
As I dreamt  ,
When I dreamt with you
Controversial ideas
Confused thoughts
Awaken dreams
I think I lost my sense
Or I never had it ,
As I never had you...
I thought that maybe I could find you
Again in a dream
And hope that you dream about me
So finally we could
Even that only in a dream
See each other!
Now I believe in dreams
I believe I can be happy
Because I know that you too
Are looking for me
And you're dreaming!

Now these are words that I have heard--
if only in my sweetest dreams.
This one gave me quite a start--
as you have penned my naked heart...

Thank you for this...lovely, lovely reverie.

Tender, lonely and yearning this poem is.  You must be a very loving person.  I enjoyed it very much!  Just lovely.  I hope this dream comes true for you very soon.
She probably IS out there somewhere, dreaming of you - I wouldn't be a bit surprised.

Thank you all for reading this poem!!
I hope it touches as many hearts as it can!
I wrote from the deepest maze of my heart
And it's truly everything that I feel at this moment!

I felt your pain as well. I firmly believe that there is someone out there for each of us, just don't give up on your search you will find that someone one day.

I have often thought that our dreams help us decide what the person we desire will look like or who they will be...our ideal.  The people we look at that stand out in a crowd are familiar to us thru our hopes and dreams.   James
