Sometimes in my dreams, your there next to me.

You smile and my heart melts. You lean in, whispering secrets and longings that have my blood racing. The sweet scent of your skin has me burying my head into the crook of your shoulder. My lips quirk as your arms embrace me. From my position I can hear the frantic beating of your heart. I pull back a little and glance up into your face. A reflection of my longing is swimming in your gaze and I get lost in the simple elegance of your eyes. Slowly, as if time was an iceberg thawing in the springs heat, we draw closer, pausing a mere breath from each other. The moment lingers a second more before I taste the enticing sweetness of your lips against my own. I close my eyes and lull in the moment.

When I open them, I find myself once again without you by my side. My room is empty and foreboding. I run my fingers through my hair as the last dregs of the dream fades away, lost in the night like countless others. Sighing, I move myself over to the window that overlooks the valley and gaze up at the brilliant night sky.

I ponder calling you just to hear your voice. I laugh and shake the silly notion from my head. I had just talked to you, said my goodnights and I love yous. You needed sleep, unlike myself.

I wrap myself in the warmth of my comforter as I lay back down and stare out my window. A smile crosses my face as I drift back to sleep on memories of your voice.
