Doreen's "Please Write Me" Challenge

I close my eyes and the dream begins
and I'm there, at first I'm alone
then from behind me comes your voice
the wind sings your name to my heart
and then I feel it,
                      the touch of your hand

flowing like silk across my face
drying the tears of my heart's loss
the warmth coming from you into me
bringing back life and love to a cold heart
and then I know it,
                      the touch of your hand

as it takes my hand into it slowly and softly
you lead me to our favorite place
there's no one else around, just you and I
you whisper softly into my ear, "I love you"
and then I love it,
                      the touch of your hand

and your lips touch mine like a tender flame
I can smell the flowers in your soft hair
and you lean your head on my shoulder
our dance begins once more my love, my heart
and all this from
                      the touch of your hand

the sun rises
the dream ends
but I still feel
                   the touch of your hand. . .
