Was it the eyes
blushing in its delight?

Was it the lips
hungry for a big kiss?

Was it the smile
igniting passion from within?

Or was it the photograph
that made me love you?

I am a dream wrapped around
your vivid imagination,
like a Christmas present
waiting to be opened
for everybody to see.

You write about me obsessively
and you keep me in a journal,
where I am read and reread
like a best-selling novel,
and preserved for that one day
when we meet face-to-face.

Life is like a poem.
It begins and it ends.
But in between the two,
it's a work in progress!

She reaches over,
asking for something to eat.
But I have nothing!

Lying on the couch:
A Judy Garland CD
soothes a resting soul.

Unable to sleep,
I turn on the radio
and dream deep in thought.

As our hands let go,
it was hard to say good-bye.
The love was still there.
