The Good Dream(Healing Heart)

Frost is glistening on the grass in the early morning sun.
My eye lashes flutter open as another day has begun.
I hear the birds singing their songs high up in the trees.
I pull the covers close to keep the cold away from me.

I can smell the refreshing scent of flowers in the air.
I smile as I look over and see the roses you left there.
I realize that I fell way too hard, too far, and too fast.
I take a deep sigh as I pray that this new love will last.

There's a song playing softly and I recognize the tune.
It's a song I sing over that reminds me of only you.
A knocking sounds gentle against my bedroom door.
I roll over quickly and pretend to sleep as before.

I hear your footsteps fall lightly on the tile as you walk.
You lower down beside me just like I had thought.
Your lips are warm against my neck as you kiss my skin.
I try so hard to fight this feeling, but I just can't win.

I sigh a content sigh and snuggle against your frame,
Open my eyes slowly as you whisper my name.
I roll over on my back and stare in to your bright eyes,
Getting lost in the ocean of blue that shames the skies.

I hear you mumble something that I don't understand.
I'm starting to get confused as you let go of my hand.
"Sweetheart,I got to go." ,your voice sounds lazy.
Paranoia sets in as everything starts to seem hazy.

I wake up with a shiver as a chill crawls down my spine,
Remember that you're not here and you're not yet mine.
I look out the window and in to the pitch dark,
Remember loves pain to prepare my healing heart.
