Dream on

Turn off the alarm.
Let me dream on.
It’s been years since I felt your touch, I think too much.
Your smile is tattooed on my brain, walking alone I see your face in the rain.
I’ve watched the sunset but it still feels lonely, I sit there dreaming of kissing you slowly.
Your smell still lingers on my sheets, as I listen to my heart skip beats.
My mind weighs heavy of thoughts of you, stuck in a haze unable to move like a statue.
I can’t erase your lips,
I feel you on my fingertips.
You take my body higher, lighting my soul on fire.
Your eyes are like a spell, I threw my last penny into the wishing well.
Will the stars realign?
Wishing I could make you mine.
Turn off the alarm, let me dream of you being on my arm.
