My Sweet Reverie | Lynn Long
You…
my sweet reverie
were, but a fleeting
dream in which
to pass the time,
to ease my sorrow
to free my mind
In the beginning,
I imagined your
face, your voice,
your knowing touch
Always, I smiled
in the thoughts
of you…
Soon, my soul
renewed in love,
no longer wished
upon the stars above
For dream and reality
seemed never to part
As feelings of joy
embraced the heart
Alas, your truth
came to be, a beautiful
awakening, I must see
And, yet, still I sleep
knowing
true…
I cannot escape-
the wonder of you
So, in my reverie
I will abide, until
the day, you’re
by my side…
