I closed my eyes today
Just so they’d be closed at the time
That yours would be
Nap time, you took a snooze
I don’t know what you saw
Or if you dreamt at all
But when I closed my eyes
For that moment- the things I saw
Were extravagant
I saw us dancing to bad music
Belonging on a country station
At a small school senior prom
Having fun, and mocking
Blissful together
I saw us cuddling up on my bed
Watching a movie, falling asleep
Your fingers in my hair
My head placed on you
Blissful together
I saw us driving to Bangor
Laughing, singing, talking
We had smiles on our faces
And laced fingers as I shifted
Absolutely blissful together
Then I had to open my eyes baby
Because I was needed elsewhere
Our long distance nap, came to an end
But in that moment I was happy
Seeing a blissful extravaganza
On the back of my eyelid

Wow, this is so gorgeous!
It's such a wonderful feeling to have
inside of you when you dream of love
like that. It's too bad that some
dreams have to end. Lovely work here
and good luck to you with it!
