I Dreamt Of You

I dream of you
Day and night
My mind escapes
Escapes to the heaven that is you

My soul evaporates around you
My being, torn asunder
Do you think of me?
Or am I just a dream?

My heart yearns
Yearns for the breath of you
To inhale your sweet fragrance
To gaze upon your beauty

Yet I am met with fear
With resistance
With cunning escape
With unbounded feelings

Yet there is hope
For you give a glimmer of hope
You open yourself
A little, but still enough

I am dazzled,
And yet confused
To stand and stay
Or to run and hide

The glimmer that is you
Brings forth the desire in me
I shall remain
With resolute trust
And faith in God

Shall stand against the tide
Ever alone, ever lonely
“Bring forth the tides!”
Let me be swept away
Or strengthened by it

For her…..for her…...
