Aspiration Imagination

A poem about a long distance relationship

Aspiration Imagination


A dream awakened me
Blissful and serene
The world where I long to be free
Imagery and everything in between.

I awoke with a smile,
but realized my reality
I pondered upon it for a while,
It began to suffice in my mentality.

I will never kiss your lips;
I will never be barely close enough,
to feel your gentle grip.
Everyday, for me this is tough.

My heart will never be
in perfect rhythm with your heart
The way it beats for thee
even though we are miles apart.

Time is my rival
eating slowly away the miles
praying soon for my revival
and a land of everlasting smiles.

Who am I to question
What is real and what isn't?
You have become my obsession
in dreams, until the sun has risen.

For it is only there
Where time does not object
To the constant icy glare
of life's little cause & effect.

So be still the night
And always take my breath away
Keep me within your sight
And beside me, say you'll stay.

I won't give up on time
Nor on this horizon we share
For I know, this time you'll be mine
In my dreams, the ultimate love affair.
