Since I Dreamt of You

January 20, 2020 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

Ever since I dreamt of you

I think of you, a lot

I look for you, and

I look at you even more

your essence and energy is like no other

but I can’t tell you

I can’t touch you

so what’s next… what more is there,

in these hollow hours I spend awake?

But to dream

I look forward to sleep

there-you are limitless

and I hope to dream dreams

where I will always know you

and may even hear you

touch you

tell you

I’m here

and then I ask you-

believing your vision

the experience of you

being too good to be true,

“is this a dream?”

because you feel too real

and that always scared me

but intrigued,

I admired from distance

you knew..

you know you saw me

you seen me

…shit!

You see me!
