The Phantom’s Embrace

As I close my eyes on the world around
a dream takes form bringing to me a smile
Ghostly arms that reach out to me, surround,
and make the harshness of the day worthwhile
I feel the warmth of lips filled with desire
as a kiss of passion fills my vision
The phantom's embrace that I acquire
now has two hearts beating with precision
A ringing brings me back to my senses
vanishing the heat that had just begun
Reaching out I rebuild my defenses
and leave the weaving of the dream undone
Then I hear a voice that whispers my name
singing me love songs while lighting the flame

(smiles) Sooooooo mysteriously beautiful! (smiles) Your dreams weave such a beautiful phantom of the opera, reciting serenades of true love! (sigh) May his silhouette soon become the loving man you'll love forever! (sigh) Such a beautiful sonnet, I love it! (kiss on cheek) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karen, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
