As I lay in my bed.
Thoughts of you ran through my mind,
Your face was in my head.
I dreamed of you holding me,
Your arms around my waist.
I dreamed of your lips on mine,
As I savoured your taste.
I dreamed of your warm breath,
Blowing softly in my ear.
Whispering words of love,
The words I so long to hear.
I dreamed of your graceful hands,
Sliding slowly over my hair.
I dreamed of your beautiful eyes,
Telling me how much you care.
I dreamed of you last night...
And then, I woke up alone.
My dream vanished like wisps of smoke,
But from my mind you were not gone.
Ker.
Relieved my anxiety, assuaged my fear.
Always full of such self-doubt,
Wondering what my feelings are all about.
Scared of feelings that I can't explain,
Scared of rejection, scared of pain.
Scared to say what I feel for you,
Scared that you will think me untrue.
Then you opened up and told me so much,
You told me you cared, reached out with your touch.
Told me you wanted me as much as I you,
That you had been thinking of me late at night too.
You also were scared, you also were unsure,
But you had the courage to open that door.
Stunned to realise our feelings were the same,
A burning ember, just starting to flame.
Ker.
That you could feel this way.
Never thought I'd see the words,
That came from you today.
Never thought I was more than a friend,
But my feelings for you are strong.
I never thought you were attracted to me,
And I am happy to be wrong.
I didn't tell you how I felt,
Purely out of fear.
I thought I'd regret it the rest of my life,
Now you are no longer here.
But today you came back to me,
And told me how you feel.
Asked me if I felt the same,
And if this could be real.
I know my feelings are as real as they come,
And I know they won't fade away.
Although I never dared to hope,
Until I saw what you had to say.
Ker.
As I often do.
Have I really found someone to love?
Can this possibly be true?
I have been so lonely in my life,
Although, this fact I hide.
To others I have the perfect life,
I keep my feelings inside.
But you came along and opened me up,
And saw behind the facade.
Saw the truth in my words,
How my life has been hard.
You have given me much by being you,
You have given me new hope.
You have given me so much to live for,
You have made it easier to cope.
Now all I need is to see your smile,
I need to touch your face.
See if you bring light to my eyes,
If you make my heart race.
I sit here quietly and think of you,
As I often do...
Waiting for the day we meet,
The day I get to you.
Ker.
Although we have not met.
With you, my life has such meaning,
For this I owe you a debt.
Such a yearning I have for your touch,
Although you have not held me at night.
In your arms I could feel safe,
This feeling seems so right.
Such deep respect I have for your mind,
Although I don't really know it.
Your mind completes mine perfectly,
Two halves of a perfect fit.
Such deep love I have for you,
Although I don't really know you.
Can this feeling honestly be real?
This time, could it be true?
Will we have a future together?
I really think we could.
We haven't met, we haven't touched,
But what we do have is good.
Ker.
Deadened eyes,
An empty shell,
Since love left.
A bright spark.
Enters life.
Catches fire,
Burns brighter.
It is you...
A reason to live.
A reason to feel.
Hopes and dreams,
Awakened once more.
My Saviour.
Ker.
