SLEEPING TO DREAM

SLEEPING TO DREAM 

She drifts to me in dreams, a tender wraith,
And with the dawn, my broken heart is mended.
The night, a gentle thief, restores my faith,
Its quiet grace heals wounds the day has tended.
The hopeless longing, sharp beneath the sun,
Dissolves in starlit tides where dreams are spun. In slumber’s arms, I plunge into your soul,
My ear upon your chest, where pulses sing.
Your heartbeat weaves a story, soft and whole,
A rhythm vast, where all my hopes take wing.
No whispered words need pass my trembling lips,
My secrets soar, unmoored, like moonlit ships. My heart’s an open hall, its portals wide,
Doors wildly flung to greet the endless night.
No veil remains, no shadows left to hide,
Our bond a flame that burns with sacred light.
An epic gleams within your eyes’ deep sea,
My love laid bare, unmasked, eternally. Through star-strewn realms, we wander hand in hand,
In dreams where time and distance cease to reign.
Your gaze, a map to some uncharted land,
Guides me through joy and echoes of old pain.
Each night with you, my spirit learns to soar,
And day’s despair can haunt my heart no more.
