i fell to sleep
in your arms

far away from
the truth--
yet a breath away
from lonliness;

in my mind
you pulled me close
and held me there

you warmed me
with your presence

you inspired me
with your very existance...

i fell asleep
in peaceful ignorance

...of the lonely truth

--dgvarner

"...if i ran away,
i'd never have the strength
to go very far..."

This is a heartbreaking, but wonderfully expressed write, dg...quite an emotional poem...I like it a lot!

sp  

to be with you...
I've tried to hide my passion,
but it's just no use...
piece by piece I lose it
when you walk in the room...

dg, this is an incredible write. Though sad it speaks volumes of the lonely heart and the dreamer in all of us.

I'll dream in innocense tonight and forget the loneliness...  

Maybe i'll dream of you.

"yet a breath away

Such simple sweetness in this poem. Really loved this.
