When one is filled with such emotion,
Blind, unending, pure devotion,
Love that flows as rushing water over high and mighty falls,
Words can sometimes run away,
Keeping what you need to say,
Hidden behind muted lips, a captive held 'neath prison walls.
Only touch could ever impart,
All the love within my heart,
All my hopes of happiness are found inside your tender arms.
Visions of a life of bliss,
In a honeysuckle kiss,
I have fallen underneath a spell cast by your gentle charms.
Dreams, some say, are sleeping lies,
Brought about by lonely sighs,
Only real in the night and burned off with the light of day.
But waking to the thought of you,
Tells me that my dreams are true,
So I will wait for you my love, for heaven's just a dream away.

I really enjoyed this, you did a good job writing this. I would say my favorite part is
visions of a life of bliss,
in a honeysuckle kiss,
I have fallen underneath a spell cast by your gentle charms.

no reflection on the poetry, but do you think we might meet in heaven? This poem always makes me cry. There are so many dreams and so few days ... tick-tock.

Oh My! That last unexpected last line!
Absolutely Beautiful (and encouraging!).

Hoodwinked !!
This is a beautiful poem of love whether realized or not. You write with such expressiveness it is had not to relate to your words and I don't know why one would try. Your word picture flows gently but has impact.
You have been Hoodwinked today by the Poetic Bandits because we care!

I want to ask if you are sure you’re a construction worker but what exclude a construction worker from being a poet? Nuthin. I hate to repeat myself but I running out of new words with which to praise your work. Well done.

There are no words for how romantic this is. The last two stanzas are my favorites. You're incredible. Hope to hear from you soon!

Only real in the night and burned off with the light of day.
Burned off by the light might make it sound a little easier... you know me I dont suggest much but when I do you should listen to it, after all, I'm your consqience... I think I spelled it wrong... Oh well... Marine Biology is my dream... not the spellings and misses of them...
What happened... is everything ok... reading a poem like this from you makes me feel a little upset... cause its well you, and you write the real not the plaster you know... your not fake ... thats all I'm trying to say, well hit me back man and tell me whats going down okay? Hope all ends well... as alls fair in love in war, because in the end we are all broken hearts and petals left in the shadows to wallow in the moaning wind... well... till later friend.
