Love Poem: I Imagined

I Imagined

I thought about you today
After we had talked,
I couldn’t get you off my mind
And you squeezed into my heart.

You touch a part of me,
That I thought had left
And slowly imagined to myself
My soul mate, I have met.

I imagined your eyes
Piercing into my very soul,
And pulling out the good in me
Just to have and hold.

I imagined your strong arms
Wrapping me oh so tight,
And the safeness that I felt
Has melted my cold and distant heart.

I imagined your voice
Speaking quietly in my ear
Washing away all my fears
And drying up my tears.

I imagined your body
Curled up beside my own
And realized too quickly,
That my heart had found a home.

I imagined that I saw you
Being strong, loving and kind,
And I thought to myself
That you were really blind.

I imagined everything
I know about myself
And I wonder when you would
Place me back on the shelf.

And I imagined for all your good,
Your kindness and your strength,
If you will touch your lips to mine,
And be filled with passions drink.

And I imagined your loving me
With all your heart and soul
And would it be hard for you
For me to have and hold.

And then I imagined a lifetime 
Without you,
Then I told myself
I could not live without you.

And I imagined how many tears
I had to cry to find you.
And I prayed there would come a time
When no more tears will fall.

And I imagined it all.....
