If I could but live in thee <br />A light within thy shadowed heart <br />I wouldst shine for all eternity <br />For I wouldst be where ever thou art <br /> <br />Within thine heart I wouldst forever dwell <br />And when fears of the past did stealthily creep <br />'Twould be by my love such sorrows were quelled <br />So safely in mine arms, my darling, please sleep <br /> <br />And in those moments of hushed solitudes <br />When thou closest thine eyes to dream <br />I wilt shine with a love most imbued <br />Where those shadows do lurk and scheme <br /> <br />So lay thine head upon my breast awhile <br />And drift beyond the twilight’s deep <br />I wilt banish those shades that dare guile <br />Thy dreams and harry thy sleep<br /><br />Sheri Walters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-dream-14/
