~True Love~

I always dreamed in the darkness of the night, that true love, I would have to steal,
because in the brutal light of day, true love, was never for real.
In my dreams, in the warm summer dusk, true love, would capture me,
but once I was caught, I'd awake from my dream and true love, would set me free.

You heard past the white noise in my dreams, to the dark sound of my silent cries.
You opened my heart with the love in your own and then you opened up my eye's,
the other loves in my life that had left me alone, were clearly never meant to be,
because your love's the only love that I've known, that my heart could rightly see.

No more dreaming of true love, in the dark of the night, because now we walk side by side,
no more shame for love's lost, my silent cries have all stopped and I hold my head up with pride.
I'll take the rest of my time, by day and by night, happily showing you how I feel, 
my dream's have come true and my heart need not fight, for the love that we share,
it is real.

This poem is dedicated to "the one." 
With this, you have inspired me.
I love you. 
Forever your's,
Bobbi
