Liebestraum
I dreamed about you yesterday
We talked about how it had been a long time
Since we were last face to face
And the experiences we had
While the other was away
In this false reality I saw somthing new
I saw love in your gaze
And I believed it to be true
You read out a poem you wrote
It consisted of my own wording
It was a heart felt love letter
Forged by a mind diluted and yearning
Your words haunted me
As my mind furthered the fiction
A beautiful girl
In such an imaginary position
Forward you leaned
Approaching me for a kiss
And as our lips met
I recalled creating this
Your body was ethereal
Your speech was vague
You were filled with passion
This was not our true fate
So I held that moment
I captured it in my mind
A love dream of you
Featuring a letter I forged and signed
This is an exquisitely
This is an exquisitely beautiful poem of love, longing and desire, and it is one that deserves to be read repeatedly. Your coy pen name brought me to your poems on this site, but your verbal elegance and emotional candor have made this poem a real reading experience, and I will be back to visit it more than once.

Highlighted the text and pressed "speak" to hear it being read out to me while in the background Franz Liszt's "Liebestraum" played in accompaniment. By the time the last three stanzaz were being spoken the realisation sunk in. The reality and the dream melded together in the reader's mind and soul. Thanks for sharing.
