Love Poem: That Place

That Place

That place between sleep and waking
A time when you remember your dreams;
Sometimes the vision clears only
When our eyes are washed with tears.
There are times when a heart is aching
For love is not all that it seems;
Sometimes it gifts you with feeling lonely
And so many unknown fears
To leave a heart close to breaking.

So many in life are there to hurt you
Can we know if they are worth the pain
Or do we allow the fetters and chain?
There's so much to say when I look in your eyes
There's so much to feel when the spirit dies;
Each day I love you more but you'll never know
For there's so much in my heart I can't show.
I'd hold you forever if you'd only let me
But I know dear, you will forget me;
So I dream of us together and how it could be
For all you are will stay a secret part of me.
