Only A Dream
'Twas only a dream
So real...
but surreal.
I could almost feel
Your touch
On my skin
—the taste
Of your sin.
In the warmth of your soft embrace,
A beautiful smile upon your face;
In that moment,
Frozen in time,
Wrapped within eachothers arms,
You were mine,
If only for a moment...
And in the blink of an eye,
Awakened by reality, I sigh;
Ever longing to return
To the dream
That is—
A lie.
So real...
but surreal.
I could almost feel
Your touch
On my skin
—the taste
Of your sin.
In the warmth of your soft embrace,
A beautiful smile upon your face;
In that moment,
Frozen in time,
Wrapped within eachothers arms,
You were mine,
If only for a moment...
And in the blink of an eye,
Awakened by reality, I sigh;
Ever longing to return
To the dream
That is—
A lie.

Love dreaming
I could happily spend eternity within them
Ok, maybe not so the bad ones 👍😁

Dear NB,
“You were mine,
If only for a moment...”
That moment sometimes has to be a lifetime when it’s surreal.
I love the ethereal floating quality of your piece. I also understand that gutted feeling of disappointment in love. You’ve blended these aspects brilliantly.
Lovely write. H🌷

The funny part (more ironic really) is that until you woke up the illusion was a truth of its own.

Ooohh NewB you r blushing lately with all these emotional, loving pieces.

You got your love vibe going on.

I have never been in love with someone which is why I don't write about it but I understand pain and emotion. I feel all the emotion within it but also I think of not just a broken heart but a broken soul. Great job.
