Love Poem: Strange Dreams

Strange Dreams

You fill me with strange dreams;
Sleep with poison ivy, 
it creates a wild twitch; 
Restrained by wicked vines,
my skin inflamed I itch; 

You fill me with strange dreams;
Into soothing starlight 
sugar balloons explode;  
Could never cause damage;
What’s real starts to corrode;

You fill me with strange dreams; 
All of my thoughts rubbed raw,
a heartfelt wish refined;
I’m left in agony  
I wake, they stay behind.
