Love Poem: Pretence Makes My Day

Pretence Makes My Day

The nonpareil,
                            on cloud nine part of my day is dawn!
                             Wake up from a dream, and behold! 
                                         You are beside me!
                                        Close my eyes again, 
                                           feigning to sleep, 
                                                I imagine, 
                           you are going to kiss on my closed eyes 
                                         to notify - it's morning. 

                                          Frisky birds chattering, 
                    a strip of sunlight peeping through the wooden blinds, 
                                        I, as mischievous as I am, 
                                            pose not to hear you, 
                                Pretend to fall back in deeper slumber 
                                 just to have that kiss one more time!
