My Dream

My Dream

I lift the handpiece from its cradle
and she is there
saying.. Dreammmm
and laughing

I often hear her laugh
as I am walking down the hall
reminding me that we are far apart

I long for the day 
that she will hold me
and I feel the strength
of her laugh
against my chest

I will close my eyes
so that I will feel nothing else
as her voice echoes through my soul

I have never seen her face
I have only seen her words
and heard her voice
but I know that I love her

She travels with me in my heart
never letting me forget her presence
her existence in my life

And even then, I reach up
and touch her face
and look up into her bright eyes
and pull her close to me

Her intelligence astounds me
Her love enchanting and fragile
All of which she gives to me

I often wonder why she loves me
what I have done to deserve
something so pure
and passionate

I do not have any answers
I only have her
and she has my heart

Every day that passes
I hope that she is still there
and afraid 
that one day
she won't 

But I cannot live in that fear
but cherish what we do have
remembering every moment
every laugh
every tear

Knowing that she is
the air that I breathe
the sun's rays on my face
the shimmering stars in my sky
and the essence of my soul

And together we share
the most beautiful love
that I have ever known.

I love you
