Dreaming
By
Alice C. Bateman
My dreaming mind oft shows me
The love that we could share
My dreaming mind compels me
To call you to my lair
I toss and turn in rapture
We hold each other close
You love me, and I love you
You are the one I chose
I dream that we are partners
And lovers in the night
I dream that you are with me
In early morning light
But then when I awaken
And it is really dawn
I find that I am all alone
And with the dreams, you’re gone
My love, I need you near me
To all our dreams fulfill
My love, your heart must hear me
And bring to life the thrill
Of your arms wrapped around me
Content in your embrace
And waking, seeing by me
Your wonderful, dear face
I love you, I have said that
You do not hear, it seems
I love you, pray thee listen
And bring to life my dreams
