I put out the fire,
the last of the flame
Swept up the ashes
and called out your name

Felt the first rain drop
that splashed on the ground
Listened for echoes,
there wasn’t a sound

Looked under trees,
behind every stone
I couldn’t find you,
I was all alone

Now I was worried,
a tear I did cry
Still I kept looking,
I just had to try

Walked to the sunrise
that waited for me
Came round a corner
and then I could see

There picking flowers,
you turned with a start
I saw your smile,
it ran through my heart

“These are for you,
they’re a morning bouquet
So you will think of me
throughout the day”

And then she kissed me,
took hold of my hand
Whispered “I love you”
said I was her man

I held her close
as we breathed in the air
A beautiful morning
again we did share

We watched the sun
as it rose up above
Another day dawns
we are so much in love

I posted my dream
on the side of a lamp post
In hopes she would see it
as she wandered by

Taking a moment
to realize the subject
Wearing a smile
and a gleam in her eye

A beautiful dream
filled with flowers and sunshine
Wonderful moments
I just have to share

Moonlight and poems
and walks through the country
Happiness found
every time I am there

So now I wait
down the street on a corner
On my front porch
that I just painted green

Waving to neighbors
who think I am crazy
They can't believe
that I posted my dream

That's when I see you
your chocolate hair flowing
Riding your bike
that looks like it's brand new

You stop and look
then you smile my direction
The message I posted
said my dream is you
Your are my dream come true

I hope she makes you feel weightless. I hope she makes you feel warm. I hope she makes you smile. I hope she does everything I couldnt
I hope she doesn't make you sad. I hope she holds your hand so tight that nothing can get between you. I hope she kisses you softly
I hope her heart aches when you're not around. I hope her lungs collapse when you leave. I hope her bones shatter when you scream
I hope you remember who loved you more than life and would do anything for you. I hope that's enough to twist your insides into a knot.

I'll wait for you forever
till stars forget to shine,
and oceans become puddles,
words no longer rhyme

Till deserts turn to gardens
where flowers go to bloom,
the grass is red, the skies are green,
the dawn brings out the moon

Till rain is something very dry
and butterflies drive trucks,
when every pond is chocolate sauce
with candy coated ducks

Till basements have a penthouse view
with windows three floors high
and stairways are a place to swim
no matter how you fly

Till mountains are a level path
that you will go to walk
and silence now becomes a way
for every one to talk

Till everything we've ever known
is gone and disappeared
The world does end, there's nothing more
just like we always feared

Till broken hearts are happy,
tears a welcome site
Night comes at the break of day
and daytime looks like night

I'll wait for you forever
until the end of time
It matters not how long it takes
if I can call you mine

— The End —
