A Daydreamers Melody

A Daydreamers Melody

‘Tis but the bewitching hour,
And all I can think about is you
I am caught beneath your spell
A spectacle for all to see
Your image floats into my brain
Lost between reality and reverie
Wishing you were real and here
Waiting, caught, tangled in your web
Tousled in this dream,
Disheveled with no place to look but memory
Remembering your smile, your laughter, and
Your nervous eyes…
The moon laughs at me and mocks my intensity
The stars jostle with my mind,
They remind me that another day has passed,
And I am closer to you. 
Your spell is so strong that I sing aloud
Dance in the street, and flail about in the wind
Nature is at my beck and call,
Happiness flows within my veins
The power seeps into my soul
And makes my heart skip a beat
Every jump is like another hex upon my mind
Daydreams and moonlight walks
Coffee and long-winded talks
Overpowered and left here to wait
From this dream I hope to never wake
To hold you close within my arms
And place you under my own charms
You are like a cluster of stars
Beautiful, and unpredictable
When we meet again,
I hope to be more than just your friend.
The moon laughs at me and mocks my intensity
The stars jostle with my mind,
They remind me that another day has passed,
And I am closer to you.
