Sweet Dreams

Dear God, If you allow me to dream tonight, let my dreams be about her,
Let my mind wander through the ideas that prepare my heart for love,
Let my skin feel her touch and my lips feel her kiss,
Let my mind know no doubt and my heart feel sure bliss.

To where the only stimulation is occurring in my brain,
Let my eyes see her face and my ears hear her name,
Let my fingers feel her skin and my neck feel her lips,
Let my hands stay steady as they travel along her hips.

Let my brain feel pleasure and my body find peace,
Let all the troubled waters in my life, slowly begin to cease,
I can’t be with her now, but she is still on my mind,
So please help me find her, for my eyes are closed, and I am blind.

When I am with her, I can climb any fence,
She makes my heart quicken and my body becomes tense,
With others my guard is up and my defenses are dense,
But with her I feel no fear and my life makes sense.

She is the enzyme that turns my pain to joy,
She may see me as a man, when I feel the courage of a boy,
So if I dream tonight Lord, let my dreams be about she,
And if she’s dreaming tonight, let her dreams be about me.
