Dreamer

I wander this path
Your image floating ahead
elusive and fleeting
I can never quite reach
the veils are never shed
Within a daze
stumbling through
falling and crawling
If only to touch your face
to feel your eyes upon mine
your lips against my neck

Safely within your arms
Peace would finally come
My soul to rest at ease
My hand upon your chest
the song of heart
beneath my fingertips
The heat of your skin
Forever more... my sanctuary
Bodies intertwined
our lives merged whole
A heavenly smile to
tilt the world
Laughter washes away past sins
And upon day's break
the light shinning through the trees
resting upon your slumbering form
Hope is embedded in a heart
No longer worn and scarred
Hours seeming an eternity
yet already we've come so far

Happiness is a cautious thing
easy to suddenly flee
Leaving me lost upon a broken path
circling once more around a heart's desire
Dreams and hopes
gracefully coming and going
throughout our lives
What is this part of me
which clings so deeply to your soul?
Its gets so hard to gaze upon your face
for the fear of loss is strong
This broken path is full of wrong steps
treacherous turns and dead ends
One single stone, one voice to lead the way
One dream of a love untold
guides this weary heart
Your being is my anchor
My very existence belongs to you
Be gentle, for this soul is fragile
Take care with my heart
For I would surely wither
without your guiding light
Pale as the moonlit path
I stumble upon
Chasing my elusive dream...
A dream of perfect love.
