Pictures play behind my eyes,
Eyes so weary...
Tugging me away...
Deeper...
A calming, gentle voice whispers words of beauty,
Peace...
...is it yours?
And I'm lost,
Drifting through violet air...
But what am I searching for?

A single, softly brushed kiss upon my lips,
And I know it's you...
But why are you hiding?
Waiting for me,
Somewhere inside my dreams...

Until I meet you there.~

At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet.<br /> <br /> Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.<br /> <br /> A poem is never finished, only abandoned.<br /> <br /> Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

the line about the soft brushed kiss reminds me of your other poem. I really like this though. 5/5 :D

I really like this one, too! I really love the dreamy, uncertain tone. It's like a beautiful dream...but then you wake up, and the magic is gone...
