When I Close My Eyes

by Deana   Feb 8, 2009


A gentle hand against my cheek
lingers soft through out the night
though you're gone, you're always near
when a lonely mind takes flight.

Love wakes the sleeping soul
A yearning heart still cries
Lying safely in your arms
sensuality' sighs

Darkness hides the aching heart
Reaching into distant time
A pillow of pure fantasy
Where life at last is always kind

All my wishes, all my dreams
So sweetly realized
In true bliss, and happiness
When I close my eyes

    This is very sad yet so beautiful.

    Darkness hides the aching heart
    Reaching into distant time
    A pillow of pure fantasy
    Where life at last is always kind

    Sometimes the only happiness we can find is in our dreams.

    All my wishes, all my dreams
    So sweetly realized
    In true bliss, and happiness
    When I close my eyes

    This is such a beautiful stanza. Knowing there is a time when we can turn our life into anything we want it to be.
    Congrats on taking 2nd place in the contest.
    Excellent job!
    Love Cindy
