Love in Trouble

I  DREAMT OF YOU WHEN I FELL ASLEEP,
FELT YOU CLOSE, BUT TOO FAR TO KEEP.
YOU WANDERED FREE AND I RAN TO YOU,
BUT YOUR EYES WERE SAD WHEN YOU TURNED TO ME.
 
I SAW YOUR SMILE; IT WAS WILD AND FREE.
YOUR HANDS REACHED OUT TO TORMENT ME.
I WANTED TO HOLD YOU IN MY ARMS,
BUT YOU TURNED  AWAY, THEN FLED FROM ME.
 
I DREAMT OF YOU IN THE MORNING LIGHT;
YOU WERE RUNNING THROUGH TREES UNDER BRIGHT SUNLIGHT.
THE SHADOWS FLICKERED ACROSS YOUR FACE,
BUT LINES OF LOVE I COULD NOT TRACE.
 
I STOOD IN FRONT TO BLOCK YOUR PATH,
NEEDING ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS I HAD TO ASK.
JUST TOUCH MY LIPS, DESTROY YOUR FEARS,
ERASE MY SADNESS, WIPE AWAY MY TEARS.
 
I DREAMT OF YOU AS I LOOKED OUT TO SEA;
WAVES CRASHING IN, SUBMERGING ME.
BUT THROUGH IT ALL I FELT YOUR STRENGTH,
LOVE TOOK CONTROL AND PULLED ME CLEAR.
 
ONLY YOU CAN SAVE ME, SET ME FREE;
WHISPER THOSE WORDS I LONG TO HEAR.
AND, YET, WE RUN AND HIDE AWAY,
PRETENDING THERE IS NOTHING TO SAY.
