I saw your eyes
Love, in my dreams
Heard you laughing, too.
Wispy fingers, playfully
Pulling me to you.
Inside my mind
Your hair was brown
Sometimes it was black.
Your orbs a sea
A forest deep
Had me coming back
Upon the wind
A melody
Softly kissed my ear.
It was your voice
And yet - was not
Chased away all fear.
You had me running,
Though I did not know
To your open arms
My soul called out
My heart did, too
'Till I was safe and warm.
And when we met
You did not look
As I had pictured you
And yet, some was
In every way
Somehow you did, too.
