Saw her in a dream....

The heart, broken and alone.

Feeling nothing but pure emptiness.

The soul reaching for her.

Grasping nothing but air.

The body wanting to feel again;

It all seems to be a dream.

Just brief images of her face.

Longing to touch her lips.

The kiss igniting a blaze. 

The sweet smell lingers.

Fingers tips sending shivers.

Sweat beads on the skin.

Within the slumber, everything fades.

I only saw her in my dreams....

Dreams are poet's best storylines. This piece, though sending positive signals, starts dark and empty. You then mention "dream" and the mood lightens and broadens. Your piece has direct target power. This is going into my library favorites, so thanks for that. take care...dan

I love writes about dreams. In our dreams there are no limits to what we dream of... to be able to write about it is awesome. I can definitely relate my friend :)

Thank you However did you like this piece?

[AaronFreitas]

I definitely did... I like the descriptions... sometimes it feels that things we dream feel more intense and the feelings are so real. You portrayed that feeling with your words. I've written about dreams and they are fun to reflect on :)

Have you written a book of poems?

[Michael Wright]

No, I have not as of yet. I actually have one planned. If I can get my mind together and do it. read moreNo, I have not as of yet. I actually have one planned. If I can get my mind together and do it.
