~ Only in Dreams ~

Only in dreams...do these empty arms wrap themselves around so supple a frame.

 

Only in dreams...are tenderly inhaled the heather of hair, the perfume of skin.

 

Only in dreams...is the passion-drenched taste of an unknown kiss eagerly unveiled.

 

Only in dreams...Milady.

I really enjoyed this, until the last word. This is only my opinion, but if you drop "Milady" I think it would actually add to the poem. That's just my preference. 100/100 regardless. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, dear poet. Your gracious review is deeply appreciated. Would follow your sound advice if this poem were not (in reality) a public posting of a private missive to one called "Milady".
