&quot;When you&#039;re dreaming with a broken heart, the waking up is the hardest part...&quot; -John Mayer-<br /> &quot;Never Neverland I&#039;m used to Peter Pan because nobody wants to grow old...&quot; -Lyfe Jennings-<br /> &quot;Never let the world see what you&#039;re really feeling.&quot; -Mom-


Every night I wake up in tears because I dream of you &amp; me,
Walking along the beach side as the sun is setting…
The beautiful scenery makes this the perfect moment,
&amp; the smiles upon our faces prove it all…

We stop &amp; stare into each others eyes,
Neither of us can say a word,
But we already know what the other is thinking…
I want to say the words on my mind,
But I can’t find the breath to say them,
So I stand in silence hoping my eyes tell you everything…

I wrap my arms around you as I move in closer,
I take a look into your beautiful eyes &amp; then I go in for the kill…
I kiss your lips &amp; then pull away,
Scared &amp; apprehensive, I stare into your eyes &amp; then look down at the ground…
You lift my head &amp; give me a passionate kiss,
I’m scared &amp; don’t know what to do but stand there &amp; kiss you back…

It begins to rain &amp; you’re still locked onto me,
Now I feel as if this is a love movie…
Finally you release my lips &amp; stare me in the eyes as the rain is trickling down our faces,
You open up your mouth &amp; out come the words, “I Love You…”

I look you in the eyes unable to say it back,
As I begin to move my lips, you gently place your finger on them &amp; you say, “Shhh… Just enjoy the moment baby…”
You remove your finger &amp; yet again give me a passionate kiss…
In the midst of the kiss, I begin to cry &amp; then I wake up,
Tears streaming down my face as I sit in the dark,
&amp; wonder where we went wrong… &lt;/3

Now Cinderella don&#039;t you go to sleep, it&#039;s such a bitter form of refuge, oh don&#039;t you know the kingdom&#039;s under siege, and everbody needs you. - The Killers

That was kind of sad; I wish they wouldn't have mangled your poem when they edited it with all the '&amp' stuff. They did it to mine once when I started using and it was awful. Good poem, though.

Check out my work sometime, please?
