In My Dreams

I’ve seen stars shining

brightly but their away so far;
Then I stare into your
blue eyes and there they are.

Your long, auburn, hair

so beautiful with curls abound;
How I longed to run through
them, softly, never to be found.

There’s a happiness I

can only find in a childs smile;
I’ve searched, mistakenly,
for it was in yours all the while.

You were there beside

me through my saddest years;
When I sat down beside you,
that feeling wiped away my tears.

There was this glow of

love that would come off of you in rays;
I felt it in me sometimes, lighting
up my nights, making my brightest days.

It’s sad how time can

make two close friends drift apart;
Time flies by but these feelings
will never fly away from my heart.

There will always be that

place, for you, inside me deep;
That feeling is in me, crying
because it knows now I must sleep.

Sometimes the crying

is so soft, sometimes it screams;
It always stops when I tell it
“It’s okay, she’ll be with you in my dreams.”
