Last night
This is something I wrote in late February, 2012. I have been trying to figure out ways to transfer all the emotions I had while writing this.
In order to do that, I recommend you read this during night hours, opening the following links, each in a new tab/window, and then proceed to the poem (... and that is the beauty of multimedia).
A bottle of wine would also help :)

Last Night (I dreamt of you)
Last night I dreamt of you my love.
Your voice, echoed through space.
Silent, for too long, yet never forgotten.
Your form, ethereal, majestic, compelling.
Last night I dreamt of you my love.
That old familiar look, pierced my soul
And once again those exquisite feelings of
fear and excitement bubbled for both of us.
All I wanted to do was reach out.
All I touched was thin air
You were a dream, for too long.
Long forgotten words, with a long forgotten tone
resonated through the air
sweetly calling out, as so many times in the past
"Hey baby!"....
I've never seen you like this,
wrapped in purple wisps,
dancing amongst the stars,
your beauty shining through.
I have longed to hear your voice,
to feel your lips pressed against mine
And, my beloved, I have often
seen you hidden beneath the blankets of a bed once shared
Last night, I dreamt of you my love
Your wandering eyes, filled with fire,
searching for hints, with nostalgia
Tell me "my sweet", have you found
what I have been hiding from, all these years?
Last night I dreamt of you my love
You lingered in my thought.
your beauty shining through.
Last night I dreamt of you my love
Have you been searching for me
with the same fervour?
Have you followed me all the way to my chamber,
only to haunt my dreams?
Has your search reached it's end?
.... My love?
A ray of light strikes through your ethereal body.
dissolving you into space...
A lingering sensation of panic wraps its cold, dark fingers
around my heart.
All I wanted to do was reach out.
All I touched was thin air
You were a dream, for too long.
Last night I dreamt of you, my love
Briefly, vividly, without having to hold you in my arms.
Yet you danced, as you faded, with that smile on your lips
Full of shy mischief, naught for others, save for me to see
You were a dream, for too long.
In order to do that, I recommend you read this during night hours, opening the following links, each in a new tab/window, and then proceed to the poem (... and that is the beauty of multimedia).
