Dreams of longing…

Your eyes are as deep and dazzling as the ocean. I drown as I gaze into them.

The waves of your silky sweet hair keep pulling me under, I care not to be saved.

Hypnotized by every subtle move you make. In the dark I can still see you. In my mind I can still hear you. In my dreams I can still touch you.

How jealous I am of my sleeping soul, which knows not of my waking heartache! When every thought, every breath, is you. Surviving the day, only to live in my dreams at night.

I awaken cursing the sunlight, which has taken you away for one more day.
