The dream

I had a dream about you last night I lay there in your arms and for a few hours in my deepest sleep I felt completely safe You always made me feel that way Safe and warm Like nothing and no one could ever hurt me The smell of you fills me and my body tingles I need you, I ache for you, I love you. I'm awake now and it all comes flooding back The worry, the pain, the hurt But at any time I can close my eyes and remember the dream The dream Written January 2013
