Infinite & Ours

I watch over flickering eyes in slumber
as they follow some inner dream, for
I would trail fantasies’ footsteps…

Allow me gaze upon these twilight dreams,
let them enter, slip easily into my shadows,
I would keep all welcome, warm

In awe, I glimpse your streaming desires,
sensing a soul encapsulating sunlight
even in most anxious times

perceiving flickers ~ a younger you in count
of silver linings, pale golden threads in your hands,
even as shadows of failure hover, sounds of

echoing laughter of those you have loved,
melding with and through inner tidal waves
of all you have ever known…

and my fingers ache to reach, to touch
these dreams in shadows warm, when
you wake me with your kiss

as eyelids flutter.

Truly an inspiring piece of beauty here.
Nicely done Sun...so peaceful, yet softly
sensual.

Softly beautiful Karilea

and I am haunted
by my illicit exquisite dream
but I can't really wake up
so I just drift in between

This is a great combination of gentle reveries and a great touch with the waking kiss.  Beautiful to read.  KJ

This really speaks to me.  I enjoyed the brief visit before lunch break ends in about thirty seconds!  Have a great day!
