Dreaming

Somewhere in the darkness your voice finds its way to my ears, pausing only a moment to be sure its really you i close my eyes and am greeted by that gentle boyish smile and those deep-blue eyes i remember only too well. The sunlight is warm against my bare cheeks as you scoop me up into your arms just as i have wanted for so long. Looking into your eyes nothing needs to be said as all the love and compassion you have always had for me comes rushing out in a river of tears. Finally after a few moments... "i love you." even as the softest whisper i felt all that you meant to the very core of my soul. Gently wiping your tears my own begin to trickle slowly. " I miss you" was all i could manage. Without another word our lips slowly meet. a moment later i open my eyes only to find i was once again alone. nothing broke the silence but the rythmic ticking of a clock. unable to control them any longer huge sobs escape as i realize you had never been there at all everything had only been a dream...
