In Dreams
Nothing questioned, no demand.
Sometimes when I’m dreaming
You waltz in like you own the place
Waking circles around my room
Commenting on the space
You say “your bed looks too big
To be in it all alone”
You say “you need me here
To make a house a home”
And I agree with a nod
A smile, an outstretched hand
You put your palm in mine
Nothing questioned, no demand
I can feel your heart beat
I can feel you breathing
You say, “love may be invisible,
But seeing is believing”
And when the dream moves on
Deepens into oceans
You control the tides
Set the stage for my emotions.
As I sink into the waters
I feel your fingers touch my face
I know what safe feels like now
I never want to leave this place.
Loves comes through the eyes
Dreams come through the heart
Forever comes in seconds
And I’ll savor every part
