IF If only in my dreams I can feel your touch your arms around me holding me tenderly. Letting me gaze into your eyes for ever lost, but found. Then let me dream. If wishes ever came true You would be here beside me at this moment. Listening to each others hearts whispering our affections till the end of the day. Then let me wish. If reality will ever exist There will come a place, There will come a time when we shall meet. So I share this dream with you, wishing with all my heart That someday this will be real. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6-10-2000 |

beautiful tender poem of longing Kit, well expressed emotions ... it has a calming relaxing effect as its read. very nice take care K, jm And it's good that I'm not angry, I just need to get over, I'm not angry, anymore Cry when you cry, run when you run, love when you love, represent the ashes that you leave behind ~MB20~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ... The world calls a butterfly" ~Lao Tze Tao~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ |

A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends."

I believe that dreams can become real, lovely poem beautiful. ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. manic street preachers "Culture Alienation Borebom and Despair" "I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing" -faster MSP "And you see, I kind of shiver to conformity Did you see, the way I cower to authority, you see And my life, it's a series of compromises anyway It's a sham, and I'm conditioned to accept it all, you see" six by Paul Draper. ----- |

Kitkat Very dreamy poem. love it  )"If only in my dreams I can feel your touch your arms around me holding me tenderly. Letting me gaze into your eyes for ever lost, but found. Then let me dream." Especially loved this part, and now I will dream some more in my bed... -nando- Ask me how to live your life, and this to you I´ll say: make your choises true and wise, so that when tomorrow will arise, you´ll smile at yesterday... |

A smile and a sigh... I enjoyed that! If only, indeed. Trew. I have been to see the world. Tasted life at every turn. And all the time your face came back to haunt me. -Chris DeBurgh |

IF ONLY I could write like you my friend! A beautiful flow of longing, desires and fantasies. Wouldn't it be nice if we could pull our dream man out of our dreams and bring him to life - oh If Only indeed. "Letting me gaze into your eyes forever lost, but found. Then let me dream." A beautiful oxymoron, a wonderful expression. Take care, Melissa Honeybee |

kitkat this was beautiful. I can say that I used to say the exact samething when I met someone on line. It was a dream and a wish to meet. We finally made it reality though and reality became that dream and wish come true. I loved your poem. kat |
