Sweet Dreams

By colleen

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

While I'm asleep in my roomI feel something enter in the middle of the nightI feel the warmth of your bodyAs you tightly wrap your arms around me,Protecting me from the outside world,Whispering things to make me feel safe.These are the nights when I sleep the best,And am not constantly tossing and turningLike all of the other lonely nights.It is these nights that I wake up with a smile on my face,Feeling happy and refreshed,Ready to start the day.Then I look around and discosver that you are not here,Maybe you never wereIt's just me in my bed.It was nothing more than a night of dreamsTo remind me of how much I love youAnd how much I miss you.
