How do I describe a love,
That has no roots in reality?

How do I define a need,
That has no basis in experience?

I see you in my dreams;
Both waking and sleeping.

I close my eyes and
Flashes of your smile
Dashes of your eyes
Color my imagination.

I shut my ears to noise and
Bits of your voice
Snips of your laughter
Water my daydreams.

I see it in your eyes
When we meet
You assess me
And smile.

Perhaps one day
Not so far away
I will look at you
With all your charm
And tell you openly
That it is our future
You see waiting in my eyes.
