You


In evening's peaceful slumber -

I whisper softly to you

May I hold you tenderly -

the way I’ve been longing to

 

As dreams are unfolding -

your image draws near

If my nights were forever -

you would always be here

 

Hidden within the twilight -

are all my unspoken words

Would you be enchanted -

by words you haven’t heard

 

Could you ever love me -

the way I’m in love with you

Follow our dreams together -

watching all come true

 

If I could ever hold you -

the way I’ve been longing to

My dreams would be forever -

and my twilights so few

Not my usual style. Just a handful of silly words.

Thank you Bishu.   This is

Thank you Bishu.

 

This is actually something that I had deposited in my trash folder. I had even forgotten that I had written it. After rediscovering it - I changed about 4 words and posted it. Perhaps it's not as bad as I initially thought it was.

Trash or whatever I liked to read it Mr Vance

Trash or whatever I liked to read it Mr Vance and I am not ashamed to admit it since I don't call myself a poet & neither do I truly understand profound poetry.You write less often & I appreciate it.~Your~virtual~friend~at~sea~not~yet~drowned
