Again My Sleep Eludes Me

For those that have loved from afar in anticipation of that first tender moment together...and the hopes of a happily ever after.

 

Once again sleep is eluding me, though

thoughts of you are soothing to me;

I dream of your tender touch, but sadly,

Love, these dreams aren’t enough.

 

Your smile melts my heart, and our

 love has a promising start. I ache in

anticipation of our first kiss, for I know,

together, we will find happiness.

 

Our  love has already grown strong from

a passion lain dormant for much too long;

with all that we have both been through,

here’s my heart, My Love, and I give it

to you…guard it well, I have trust in you.

Author's Note

Be gentle, this is my first, but be honest...I value your input.

Alas...sometimes only in our sleep to we truly find bliss and harmony. Our dreams are what makes us who we are though. We should never give up hope or forsake them.

That's really sweet. Love is such a complicated emotion but despite the pain we always seem to find it was worth it at least for a while. Beautiful!

Impressive... it's quite a leap of faith to put your heart on the line but if we don't take chances then we can't find happiness... your write is very sweet, sincere and beautiful.

This is so sweet and heartfelt. I have been that shy wallflower for almost all of my life. But it pays to finally find a voice.

Like love, writing is putting yourself out there... Pulling down the shields and walls. Just like this poem! This is very good!

I can feel the love poured into this...the wonder...the excitement! This comes right from that place where great poems dwell, in your precious heart. Your poem puts me in another realm and it's where I love to be--such sweetness.
Your whole poem touched me, especially these words of yours that showcase your beautiful feelings and end your poem quite eloquently... "with all that we have both been through, here's my heart, My Love, and I give it to you�guard it well, I have trust in you"...what a priceless treasure to offer.
