This is a poem that reflects some of the feelings that I have felt over my life. I have had some long-distance relationships, and they have always been wonderful. It's amazing to know that dreams can always come true.

This poem originally was published in Love Poems

Dream Of Me
"Dream of me", she said as she hung up the phone
"Dream only of me my love, and me alone"
And later that night, when his body hit the bed,
Visions of her beauty danced through his head

His first dream of her was in Paris, along the Champs Elyesses
Dancing with the night, playing hide-and-seek with the day
The beauty of her face reflected in his eyes
Never before had he felt so happy, never before had he felt so alive

His next dream of her was paradise, it looked like Belize
There they drank Pina Coladas and lived a life of ease
The beauty of her body reflected in the sun
It was then that he knew in his heart that she was the only one

His last dream of her was the best of the three
It was a vision of the one thing that he hoped someday would be
The warmth of her body next to him, reflected in candlelight
He longed for it to be like this, each and every night

He rose from his dream in the middle of the night
Stretching out his arms and rubbing the sleep from his sight
And as he moved slowly from his bed
He stopped, and noticed on his chest, her head

    I was really touched by this poem. I write poetry and I just now started to read it . This is the first poem that has made me vote. It is awesome. I tell my boyfriend every night to dream of me. We are states away from each other and it is so hard. This poem just touched me because he always said he does but I kind of doubted it.

    This is exactly how my boyfriend and I feel! We want to be together so badly. The most perfect moment we can both think of is the day when we wake up and we are in each others arms. Actually, I jus sent this poem to him.

    it makes me think of me and my BF because all we can do is dream until the day we can be alone and have our own house. I thought it was so sweet how he was dreaming about her and just woke up with her head on his chest, he must've felt so happy to finally hold her in his arms instai of just dreaming about it!

    What an awesome piece! I love it! It reminds me of me and my b/f telling each other to dream of each other before we go to bed and then finally get to stay with one another one night and waking up looking into one anothers eyes. Beautiful work!
  • Amber
    This poem is truly amazing! What first captured my attention was the fact that you have been in a long distance relationship and made it through. About 2 months ago I got out of a long distance relationship and I'm finally learning to let go. I often remember the nights where I would go to sleep dreaming of my Joe. I would always tell him to meet me in my dreams and I remember waking up to an empty bed with noone beside me. I love how there they were when you woke up. It truly shows love in a different light and I think this poe is absolutely amazing! Never stop writing, you were blessed, truly blessed!

  • Dani
    This was an incredible piece. I found that it hit so close to home. I was away from my boyfriend all summer, and every day, whether by phone or email, I would tell him to dream of me. Now that he has come home, he says the best part of his day is waking up right beside me. I think its incredible that someone can put into words all the emotions that are so hard to capture. What a wonderful gift!
