I can hear your loving voice
it echoes in the ocean's waves.
I can see I have a choice
for now I know emotion saves.
I fall to the oceans arms
and then I start to drift away.
Lost in love and happiness
so in this dream I'd love to stay.
I can hear your laughter
and now I can hear you call my name.
Am I really here with you
or is this merely a head game.
I don't care if I'm asleep
for now I hope that I won't wake.
I can breathe the scent of you
and now my body starts to shake.
You just laugh and take my hand
the ocean waves begin to rise.
As they carry us away
I lose myself within your eyes.
Surfing over lands unknown,
I can feel excitement true.
I hold you so tightly
in my arms to say that I love you.
It is like we'd never lost the spark
that let us intertwine.
It brings back those precious days,
when I was yours and you were mine.
I enjoy this moment
for it makes my soul feel so serene.
I just lose myself again
as if the slate had been wiped clean.
I will laugh with hands up high
with no more sorrow and no pain.
Will the ocean carry us
forever or will water drain.
We get lost in conversation
as these waves make us feel high.
We laugh about times before
and then my body starts to dry.
It was all illusion
there is no such thing as magic.
Now I feel confusion
because this dream was so tragic.
Now I see in to my heart
with those emotions I conceal.
I can't help but wonder
so I reexamine how I feel.
Author notes
I'm just dreaming.
It was interesting. I wanted to write a love poem and somehow sorrow seems to find it's way into every one of them. Well, I'll just do what I do best. I hope this is what you were looking for!

This is lovely. It is definitely in the area of what I am looking for. I do like it alot. Thank you for entering my contest. Good Luck. The only thing I have to say is that you missed a "p" in happiness in the beginning of the poem. Very good write.
