Reaching to you

 

 

Each night, when I drift off to sleep
surrender to my dreams,
when wishes are my only fare,
harvested in reams.

Although I might have want for much,
I would suffice for just the touch,
of you, within my wanting arms,
my living dream, who deftly charms.

You fill my dreams, with such delight,
as I slip into them at night.
I’d never wake if that could be
for waking seems a crime to me

Then, when sleep passes and I wake
I'll find it hard, those dreams to shake.
desires too, I will not slake,

or your enchantment break.
your pure enchantment break

    Sometimes sleep is better than being awake. Sometimes we can't control what takes place in the empirical world. However dreams and sleep are a different world. This piece is one that rakes itself over the life of all the desires one might have for another. I believe you caught it in its most innocent way. I applaud your effort and hope you do well in the contest. RC
