To Dream of Love
To Dream of Love
My eyes grow heavy, bewitched of sleep
Dreams enchantingly lull my soul
Hazy visions coalesce in a reflective mist
Painting colorful rainbows of my subtle impressions
Thus viewing advances the metamorphosis of light and thought
As images dance with deceptive freedom, life is born
Playful phantoms of pure intent
If only my heart could hold you, my hands could touch you
What treasure I would have
To dream of love
For not
-
After a night that feels so pure
The morning comes too premature
And you won't want to rise from rest
When light breaks through that distant crest
The nightly visage disappears
Just before her form's made clear
And dawn scares off a perfect dream
The illusive fading fairy queen
But life and love flow all the more
Just beyond the broken shore
To swim or sail these rocky waves
Requires one with faith to brave
With trust in heart and love in hand
Escape the shorelines silent sand

Love is a shared emotion which can not be experienced alone. It requires a partner and together the mutual infatuation grows into the enormous emotion known as love. If feelings aren't shared they can never grow beyond a one sided emotion. I have never experienced something so beautiful and pure as love, but I have dreamed, and within my delusions I felt for illusions emotions that should never be.
