Day 1: Dream 1
Softly and sweetly you approached me
Content to be alone,
Your energy slowly entered my perception
I came close to you and your lips fell against my neck
Not in lust or desire
but in adoration and grateful attention
Without thinking, I kissed your lips, lingering unexpectedly
Slowly pulling away
Noticing the shock on your face and mine
at how right it all felt
Suddenly embarrassed, we searched the floor for words…
Day 2: Dream 2
You appeared where I was alone perusing
the musical instruments carefully hung on the walls.
Suddenly I felt you
The beauty of your essence enfolded me in serenity
I exhaled and was delighted you were there.
Without a word you took my hand
I was not sure where you were leading me,
but the bliss I felt with your hand in mine melted away
any resistance and fear left in my thoughts…
I’m still not sure if it is me calling you, or you calling me…
Day 3: Dream 3
It was a late night
Dark and still
This time you were in my home
Adorably pleased to be where you were
We lounged around and chatted
The dialogue now escaping me
The atmosphere was one of contained excitement, uncertainty,
and the innocence of a teenage love affair
*As I write this, I feel the distinct feeling of déjà vu wash over me*
Your smile was radiant
I was aflutter and yet slightly suspicious as to why you were here with me
I was nervous, not really sure what you wanted
I hoped eventually you would intimate your reasons
But I was content in the meantime to conversate and bask in the brilliance of your countenance
Time passed and there was a soft knock at the door
It was an unexpected visitor
It gave you a reason to tear yourself away
You thought it was better you left anyway
So I let her in and walked with you downstairs
You leaned up against the car door
You pulled me close to you
Your hands on my hips
I can’t remember who kissed who first
It could have been that we just kissed each other
I remember the way your tongue felt inside of my mouth
I traced the inside of your lips and teased the metal ball underneath your tongue
My hands were clenched in fists down in front of me as you held my arms
Still kissing, your hands fell down to mine and you guided them to your waist
Touching your skin for the first time was so intoxicating I moaned slightly,
against my every attempt not to
A few more moments went by and you pulled away laughing gently
“You’re really into me aren’t you?”
Your surprise at that fact was quite endearing and ever slightly annoying
I thought I had been quite clear
Perhaps it was more subtle than I felt it
Perhaps you were resisting for the same reasons I have
Fear maybe, hard-headedness?
Who knows
You then said some words and your energy shifted ever so slightly
I got the feeling that you had some things you needed to take care of
It seemed to me this had to do with someone else
Not another woman, no, a man
Or something personal within your own soul
Or both perhaps
Something comfortable for you,
but I could tell you were curious as to what our interactions have promised,
pulling you into the unknown
I sensed it would be a process to let go
You are willing and yet it would only be layer by layer
and little by little that this thing between us would unfold
Whatever it may be
Even amidst my impatient air
I admit I find a secret pleasure in unraveling
this enigma we have created for ourselves
As though it would be worth nothing without the struggle…
