Resting my head on your chest, listening to your heart beat.  Running my fingers through your hair softly as I caress your lips.

Draw me out of the ocean that divides us into your sleep.  Free me to share your love as you  look into my eyes blue as a summer sky.

Tell me again of your love, how you give it to me freely.  Touch me with your words as well as your body until I am one with you.

As my eyes close in sleep I hear your laughter and I smile.   Your teasing words come back to me as I relax into the darkness of my mind.

I see your eyes with warmth and desire as I float in space and time to be with you.  Molding my body to yours once more.

Easing back into the day I leave your arms again recalling your closeness in total clarity,  feeling renewed in my love for you.

Knowing it was just a dream, but a dream we share.  Bringing the reality of our love into our dreams of when we will be together.
