Journey To The Realm Of Dreams
Not to sleep, but to enter the realm of dreams
That’s why I’m here
My body needs rest; I feel the fatigue in my joints and bones
But my mind, it craves a journey
The excitement builds as I prepare; this night a new destination
Restless competing emotions
From the moment I cradled the phone it was apparent
Your voice, my voice, our voices
Tender words, soft as pure water, silky and sensual
Flowing and overflowing
I am both consumed and silenced by the mental recall
Restlessly awaiting slumber
Tomorrow is too distant; my needs overwhelming, if only a word
Speaking spiritually
Take me someplace where the waters never stop their rushing
Thoughts propel my vision
Share space with me, warmth of the sun on our faces
Eyes growing heavy
Sing to me your songs of life; tales of hope and love and happiness
Ethereal feeling of weightlessness
Quench my thirst with your essence; my cup has no bottom
Floating and submerging
The pool of your life-force, beckoning my physical form
Savoring the embrace
Our minds find unity, our souls embrace their prophecy
Perfect match
Each whole but a part, now part of the whole
No spaces between lines
The entirety of love; beyond the structural definitions of humankind
Apart yet together
Reaching out across the universe with clarity of direction
Internal navigation
Passionate moments, touching, tasting, lost in your eyes
Cardinal directions
Each point a terminus that guides our hearts together
Colors everywhere
Surrounding and soaking into each pore, each molecule
Nightshine, dayshine, evershine
Light in the darkness, awake while asleep, travelling while resting
Two souls in unison
No border shall encumber us, no moment offer betrayal
Portals, pathways, trajectories
Clarity of consciousness our assurance of no encumbrance
Love shared in dreams
And in the morning, we shall reminisce about the moments
Journey ending, another beginning

Oh such a lovely verse, Ralph. The spiritual realm of dreams is a beautiful place to be. It is where one can journey and find joy and peace. I love your poem. Very nicely penned and emotive. Well done.
We can lose ourselves in deams of love, Ralph, and hope upon all hope that when we wake such dreams have become reality. Alas, that is rarely the case, but true love in life can often carry over into our dreams as well which is wonderful, as is your verse.
