The ocean has
Been singing to me
And the song
Is that of our
Life together
I can almost
Feel you beside me
And I can smell
The scent of wildflowers
That reminds me of you
But at these moment
These things give me no pleasure
And I feel sometimes
As if the greatest part of
Who I am is slowly sipping away
At night when I'm done
I call for you
When ever my ache seems the greatest
You still seem to find
A way to return to me
Last night
I had a dream about you again
The wind was blowing
Through your hair
And your eyes held the fading sunlight
You are extraordinary
I think as I see you
A vision that
I can never
Find in anyone else
I stopped when I reach you
And took you in my arms
I long for this moment
Than any other
It is what I live for
And when you return
To my embrace
I gave myself
Over to that moment
At peace again
I'm here to love you
To hold you in my arms
To learn from you
And to receive your love in return
Because their is no other place to be
Than to be with you

Well I'm really sleepy, but I can tell it's a nice write. =P
'And your eyes held the fading sunlight' was my favourite line.
I'm not a big fan of these ode to love poems, because I'm not loves biggest fan. But, there is a nice range of imagery and it held my attention the whole way through, soooo........
