In a Far Away Land

I had the greatest poem ever but I left it in my head.

It was about you and me and our love,

given to us from the angels above.

We were in a far away land

with endless blue skies and white warm sands.

The touch of your hands set my skin on fire,

your kiss on my lips stopped my heart beat

I was dizzy with passion as you electrified my soul

I had your kisses every minute, every hour, every day

But unfortunately for you and to me

I awoke to the bleeping of my alarm in the early morning light

instead of grabbing paper and pen

to write the words I whispered in your ears

I lied awake in my canopy bed alone

thinking of you in my wonderful dream

and this love unknown to me.
