If you are ever lying in your bed <br />in the darkness of the night <br />and amidst the shadows you see a light <br />darling mine, that is the flame of my love <br />that burns for you like a fire bright and hot <br />moment after moment, longing to be where now I'm not <br /> <br />If you are ever so anxious and embrace your pillow <br />and to your face hold it tight <br />and you smell the sweet aroma that reminds you of our night <br />darling mine, that is the scent of my body <br />and roses I used to send in times past <br />when you held me next to you, and forever it seemed to last <br /> <br />And if you are hot and restless and take your covers off <br />and between the sheets you feel a soft breeze <br />that envelopes your perfect body to please <br />darling mine, that is my hand that touches you, caressing your each <br />and every inch with my fingertips, from your face all the way down to your feet <br />and then back up until our eyes meet <br /> <br />If your mouth is dry and suddenly your lips are moist <br />and filled with the taste of wine <br />that makes your body long for mine <br />darling mine, you taste my lips kissing yours <br />quenching your thirst for me and mine for you <br />more and more you into me and me into you <br /> <br />And if you hear the sounds of the wind <br />as it plays with the things around <br />making music with every different sound <br />darling mine, that is my voice that whispers <br />gently and sensually in your ear <br />until 'I love you, I love you', is all you hear <br /> <br />And when you wake up the morning after and reach out to hold my hand <br />but open your eyes to see and empty space where I used to be, and wonder <br />how can a dream ever feel so real, and you ask yourself if I still care <br />oh darling mine, I tell you this: <br />for that night when you thought you were dreaming <br />that night... I was really there!<br /><br />Marco Antonio Solano<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dreams-of-fire/
