Poems Of The Feather Pen #Wattys2016

I Saw You Lying There

I saw you lying there
Sleeping sweetly
Dreaming softly
I stroked your face and
You smiled at me
I kissed your lips and
You sighed happily
All unconsciously
I lay there beside you
Inhaling every moment
Like precious oxygen
Then my vision blurred
And lightened
I reached out and you were
Not there
Merely a dream
Oh how my young heart
Ached with longing
For that dream to come true
But, oh, my love, I knew
I knew I had to wait for you
I know I have to wait
