Dreamland

• So gently they came out
• Almost a whisper of a sound
• They mingled with the stillness
• And a feeling so profound
• 
  
• I first heard those words
• Such a long time ago
• But now my world has smiled
• My face began to glow.
• 
  
• I longed to hear those words again
• Bringing the winds of change
• I no longer felt I had to abstain
• From feeling joy instead of pain
• 
  
• I said those words first
• So soft yet so sweet
• Magically and lovingly
• Our eyes would meet
• 
  
• Her reply came next
• Forever to endear
• As those wonderful words
• Now flowed into my ears
• 
  
• "I love you!" I said,
• And my words echoed back
• From my lover's lips they came
• Precise and intact
• 
  
• My spirit soon stirred
• My soul was renewed
• My heart beat loudly
• As my thoughts flew
• 
  
• Over hills and valleys
• Through time and space
• I kissed her sweet lips
• Gently caressing her face
• 
  
• My tears flowed freely
• Gentle tracks down my cheeks
• Overwhelmed by my silence
• I was unable to speak
• 
  
• Always and forever are
• These moments with you
• They will be like a dream
• That somehow came true.
