I dreamt of you

Last night I had a dream about you. We were together, as in the beginning
I was the Bonnie to your Clyde. Our laughter left my head spinning.
We talked about plans for our future. It felt so natural,and right.
Your voice was music to my own. We spoke of love's promise all night.

I remembered how it felt to love you. Your smile when you looked my way.
My heart became yours forever. Our love I would never betray.
I smiled when you called me “Baby”. No, there was not any pain in my dream.
In my dream our love was pure. Anxiety was foreign, I felt serene

We sat so close,and held hands. In my dream, we celebrated each other.
I thought I’d found my soul mate. You were my confidant,friend,and lover.
I thought to myself “This has to be real”. My senses remember each nuance.
The touch of your skin,the smell of your scent. Yet, it was love that held the preponderance.

When woke up,I shut my eyes tight.I wanted back into my dream.
I saw you fading away,taking our love.Then came the anguish so deep and extreme.
When I finally realized that it wasn’t real, I cried out,but you weren’t there.
You broke my heart,it was then that I knew.
My dream was really a nightmare.
