With Joy

I am stunned by the depth and power
of the love in my dreams
gentle, open, intoxicating
Is that a possibility in life?
can anything reach that quiet full feeling,
eternal in nature,
cellular in the knowing

I want that in everyday
in every minute
to feel myself
and you hum with it

I want to see it in your eyes
feel it in your breath on my skin.

Just standing in your presence
looking at your face
in the half dark cold
I could feel it surround me
papable in front of me
I wanted to touch it
as much as I wanted to touch you

I wanted us both
to see some secret magical light
see our love glowing
around and between us
just to know
we had both witnessed
that the depths of dreams
are real.
