Filler Poems: I Dream of Us.

"I dream of us, you know..."

I Dream of Us.
I dream of us, you know
Lying together on verdant fields, free from all worry
Your hand by my side and our hearts beating together
I'd never let you go, and I hope you'd do the same
I could lie here for all eternity, and admire you for who you are
Not a damsel in distress
Nor a subservient dame
Not even a subordinate
But as my partner, my equal and my half
Without you, I am incomplete, a puzzle left unfinished
Left cold and alone, clutching wounds unhealed
But you, you complete me, you heal past scars
And guide me to a future ever so bright.

I dream of us, you know
But really, I dream of you
And all the little features I've come to adore
Your perfect azure eyes, glistening with hope and the light
Of a million little stars, each unique in their beauty
But none as beautiful as you, my love
Your pursed, bewitching lips, soft as the finest silk
Free from imperfection, as comforting as summer's embrace
Always managing to keep me silent, even on cold, dark nights
With just the two of us, kept quiet and at peace
Or maybe even your voice, as alluring as Siren's song
Captivating me, rekindling emotions unknown
To this chilled, broken organ beating deep within
Fearful to blossom, lest it be hurt most grievously
But you, you may just be the cure I need.

I dream of us, you know
Especially before, before we got together
Day and night, you bewitched me, kept me awake for endless
Hours, draining me of sleep and filling me with the hope
That one day you'd be mine and I would be yours
At the time, I thought it foolish, even naive
For me to foster any hope of asking you
To fill the hole in my wounded heart
And allow me to make you happy in ways innumerable
Of course, the courage I needed, I lacked
I slumbered in darkness, kept away from the light
Of love and all things comforting (you, especially)
An error - no, a mistake, I thought myself to be
Forever alone and forever divided from all
That is, until you entered my life
Like a shining, glimmering, pulchritudinous angel from above.

I dream of us, you know
And what awaits us in the future
The crimson fire of rage and hatred?
Or the comforting tides of love and respect?
I sure hope the latter's more than a fleeting dream
But a tangible, possible reality
I love you completely, fully and utterly
No words can express how you make me feel
The blackest night can become the brightest day
All thanks to you, my own little angel
Who I'd do anything to keep happy, forever and always
May our love persevere, even until the End of Time.
