I Can Only Dream of You
by Ken HarnischIt is more than wishing you were here
Your form clinging to me
Your soft lips upon my own
It is more than merely holding you
Though holding you, I would be
As man arisen to that perfect state
Where love and the purity of the soul
Are joined in holy matrimony.
I can only dream of you, and in my dreams
The life I cannot have is mine
In all its sweet sublimity
Your arms enfold me
Your lips carry me to pillows
Where the harsh sunlight cannot tell
Tales upon the face of our rendezvous
With destiny and desire.
In those dreams, I love you
In the shadows and the light
And no one calls you home
Who isnt me.
