i walk to you, only you

i walked to you in the still night.
you in soft slumber, so tenderly sweet
with innocent inspiration.
but i awoke too soon
to find the screen in my hopes
are not equivalent to the realities of dream,
not like the prayers of times long past.
your arms reached out
and i reached in to find
my heart beats still
and you steward my love,
but the reception
along the way
waned.
and i drifted to dreams
yet again
with wants to outlandish
to speak.
i hope you know
i will always love you.
i hope you will share
my dream again,
on a night when minds
crave change
on a night where your arms
are my goal.
i'm walking to your door,
will the light
be on
to welcome me in?
i knock and I hope
the rapping
wakes us all
so we can fall
asleep again
in the warmth
of our embrace....
