As You Dream

By evangelina

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Breaking the feverish scent of the image you place upon me         wears my heart so thin.   Dreaming consistently of another place of paradise         only serves to rise with a passion that doesn't end.   I hear you breathing next to me     and the caress of your mouth     nuzzles my ear...         Just one touch as light as the wind           sends me into a whirl of desire.       You, my love, have always been able to take             me higher         than any other has done.     Whisper my name as you dream of loving me.     Taunt my body as you lay next to me.     Keep me awake so I can feel the teasing pleasure       of knowing your arms surround me.     A soft sigh escapes from my lips     as I long to wake you from your dream.     Do you have any idea of what you mean to me?     I give you my heart, my love,       and I give you my breath.     Sleep in everlasting dreams       as it seems     we are loving each other for the ultimate death.
